Cheer in the Holidays at the Cornelia Arts Building December Open Studios
With the completion of a multi-years long remodel, the 38 year old Cornelia Arts Building, at 1800 West Cornelia Avenue, Chicago, Illinois, opens its doors to the public on Friday December 6, from 6 – 10 pm, and on Saturday December 7, from 11 am – 3 pm. Visitors can meet talented artists and artisans in person, experience their art practices up close, and purchase art and crafts directly from their makers. Explore two full-floors of working art studios at one of the largest artist studio buildings on Chicago’s North side, and find the unique gifts perfect for your loved ones and for yourself.
Held only four times a year, the open house events showcase a fresh mix of artists each time, with over 40 artists participating in December. One hundred local artists and artisans work in the building, including painters, sculptors, photographers, ceramic artists, print-makers, jewelers, designers, and much more. December’s special juried front lobby guest artist is Dan Nelson, who paints stories and moments in time using color and humor, depicting a joyful and inclusive world of people and pets. With one-of-a-kind artwork and gifts, and the unique studio settings, the December Open House offers something for the whole family.
Established in 1986 in a former ice-house, the Cornelia Arts Building is located at 1800 West Cornelia, at the border of three distinct Chicago Neighborhoods; Roscoe Village, Lakeview, and North Center. Located close to public transportation and only two blocks south of the Addison Brown Line CTA stop, the building has a free parking lot and street parking nearby.
