The Cornelia Arts Building - Where Art Works

Come celebrate Spring with the working artists of the Cornelia Arts Building, at their last open house until the fall! See the working art studios of the talented resident artists and artisans, meet them directly without intermediaries, and explore their working practices up close!

The building opens their doors to the public only four times a year. At this Spring event, come explore two full floors of working artist studios, and have a chance to purchase artwork and hand-made crafts directly from the people who made them.

Over fifty local artists and artisans work in this former ice-house, including sculptors, painters, photographers, ceramic artists, print-makers, jewelry designers, textile artisans, and much more.

Join Jason Messinger in studio # 204 where he showcases his signature tile murals, ceramic sculpture, paintings and drawings on paper, and artist designed gifts and books!

His special studio guest artist is Joey Wozniak - showing his fantastic floral explosions and magical landscapes in a variety of sizes.

Meet our building resident artists, see hallway guest artist exhibitions by Tracy Frein and Gregory J. Matthews, enjoy complimentary beverages and refreshments in the studios and try the delicious fare from the food truck outside! Our open studio events are family friendly and free to the public!

Established in 1986, the Cornelia Arts Building is one of the largest All-Artist studio buildings on Chicago's North side. The building rests at the border of three distinct Chicago Neighborhoods; Lakeview, Roscoe Village, and North Center.

Close to public transportation and only two blocks south of the Addison Brown Line CTA stop, with free parking available in parking lot out front and on neighborhood streets nearby.
