Browse
two-full floors of working art studios at one of the largest all-artist
buildings on Chicago’s North side. With one-of-a-kind artwork and
special artisan-made gifts by the building artists, the event offers
something for the whole family to enjoy. Currently over 80 local artists
and artisans work here, including painters, sculptors, photographers,
ceramic artists, print-makers, jewelers, and much more. Join artist Jason Messinger in studio #109 where he shares his signature ceramic tile murals, sculptures, paintings and drawings on paper, and artist crafted gifts.
Building
on nearly four decades of fostering creativity, the venue nears
completion on a multi-year remodeling effort, with double the studios
and artists, and more art than ever before. Visitors to the March Open
Studios can meet talented artists and artisans in person, explore their
art practices up close, and purchase artwork and hand-made crafts from
their creators.
