Jun 7th 2018

Raising over $100,000, the benefit is the Chicago Artists Coalition’s largest fundraising event of the year. All of the proceeds directly support CAC’s artist and curatorial residencies, education and professional development workshops, ground-breaking exhibitions, and the online platform CAR (Chicago Artists Resource). At WORK IN PROGRESS we will announce the recipients of the 2018 MAKER Grants. Grants are sponsored by the Coney Family Fund and Other Peoples Pixels.
