Charles Joseph Smith: Rogers Park DIY
@ Roman Susan
1224 W Loyola Ave, Chicago IL 60626
Opening Saturday, September 2nd, at 6PM
On view through Sunday, June 11th
As a profound lover of Chicago’s DIY life, Charles Joseph Smith will share a presentation about Rogers Park DIY spaces Mess Hall and the Heartland Café. Both sites created long-term vital creative and political spaces for artists in Rogers Park and across the City. In this spirit, Charles will also talk about War of the Martian Ghosts, his work-in-progress DIY opera. Following the discussion, we will celebrate and have pizza next door at our neighboring DIY music venue, Archie’s Café starting at 8 PM. Come and dance!
