SHOUT
@ ARC Gallery
2156 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Friday, July 21st, from 6PM - 9PM
On view through Saturday, August 12th
This exhibition brings together a host of voices, culminating in a collaborative SHOUT! for justice, democracy, and equality.
As political passions sweep the country, public expression has taken the form of marching, petitioning, donating, writing to congress…. While ARC Gallery encourages all these voices of outrage and resistance, the gallery is particularly committed to supporting creative expression as a vital and essential avenue of engagement as well.
