The
city of Chicago boasts over 75 neighborhoods each with their own cuisine, shopping, art, history, architecture and
heritage. The common thread is they all bring an element of excitement to the
senses. This collection of artwork and artisan crafts focuses on the rich colors, textures and sounds
that ebb and flow as one moves about the city.

Sounds and Sensations of the City is a juried exhibition of fine artwork and artisan crafts from 27 of the 50 resident artists in the
Cornelia Arts Building. Showing together for the first time in a group show outside their studios and on display across town in the State
Street Gallery at Robert Morris University, bringing these distinct neighborhoods, known for their appreciation of the arts, together in
