222 W Merchandise Mart Plaza, Chicago, IL 60654
On view through Tuesday, May 14th
The 2023 season will also feature new projections by the Chicago Black Dance Legacy Project, Gensler and Chicago Public School Students
From April 27—May 14, 2023, ART on THE MART will feature new artwork from soon-to-graduate CPS students, officially titled Select Works from the CPS Class of 2023. CPS will select the final work to be projected on the façade of THE MART from student submissions to the All-City High School Visual Arts Exhibition and the Senior Portfolio Showcase. Students’ artwork is selected based on a score given for technical skill, craftsmanship, originality and student voice. An original score also created by CPS students will accompany the piece. The launch of the ART on THE MART projection will coincide with the inaugural CPS multidisciplinary arts festival for the entire district, RE·VER·BER·ATE. The four-day event will showcase the widest possible representation of CPS student work (Pre-K-12th grades) across performing and visual arts.
ART on THE MART is free and can best be experienced from the jetty section of the Chicago Riverwalk on Wacker Drive between Wells Street and Franklin Street, where accompanying audio can also be heard. Spring programming will be on view nightly at 8:30 p.m. from April 14 to June 7.
