 | | Rockford, Illinois’ third largest city, has a diverse history of commerce, politics, education and demographics. |
 | | Rockford has made its mark upon the world with internationally recognized, home-grown “products” such as Nelson Knitting Company (a la Sock Monkeys), Rockford Products, the Rockford Peaches, Nylint, Estwing, John B. Anderson, CheapTrick, Barbara Hale, Lynn Martin, Janet Lynn and Ginger Lynn. |
 | | Over 40 artists and personalities who live or have lived in Rockford will create objects with materials that have been made in Rockford, (or medium) to depict Rockford, or an aspect of Rockford, in all of its splendor or in all of its, well, not so glorious maneuvers. |
