Ideas of Home: A Housing Salon
@ New Rhythm Arts Center
1441 W Morse Ave, Chicago, IL 60626
Opening Saturday, May 25th, from 7PM - 9PM
Third Estate Art presents the second salon in its 2019 series, this time all about “home” and housing issues.
Each participant will use 10-20 minutes to talk, read, sing, perform, or however they’d like to showcase what they do for you. The event will end with a Q&A.
Featured guests include:
Channing Jones, AKA Tenthwondr, Watercolor Artist
Channing will exhibit and discuss his paintings inspired by the Chicago homeless community.
Daniel Jun Kim, Pop Mythologist
Daniel will discuss building a movement of superheroes who help make their communities a better place.
Georgia Braun, Abstract Expressionist Painter
Georgia will show her large-scale impressionist paintings and tell stories about moving from the country to the city and the unique housing challenges faced by artists.
Rory Jobst, Actor and Playwright
Rory will perform a monologue from a work in progress that might involve imperial stouts, tuxedo kittens, Simpsons themed meme experiments, and/or the ranked voting system.
*Third Estate Art NFP is a 501(c)3. We are a group of artists and activists who create public art about social issues. We also partner with city parks to bring art to kids’ events and into field houses. We believe in paying artists for their time and work, so every presenter (or their organization) at the salon will receive an honorarium. We set up a pay-what-you-can system for buying tickets, so please consider paying a little extra when you buy yours–your money goes right into recouping our venue costs and paying the presenters.
