Sew She Did! Art Show
Sat, March 14th from 6-10p

In honor of Women’s History Month, we invite you to join us for Sew She Did!, a popup art exhibit celebrating various women who actively use the power of self expression in their art/music/craft to positively impact their communities and world.

For one-day-only, Sew She Did! will feature embroidery and fiber arts by local artist Shannon Downey alongside various mediums/works from female artists across Chicago. Also, meet the women behind the studio spaces at Workshop 4200 as their doors will be open throughout the night!

All ticket proceeds will directly benefit the Badass Cross Stitch Tour— a year-long, cross-country, art + community building project led by Shannon Downey aka Badass Cross Stitch.

Guests are encouraged to come back for a special Embroidery Craftivism Workshop on Sunday, March 15th from 2-4 pm. Limited seating available.

Special words from attorney Megan Loop Mathias, an advocate for women, minorities and entrepreneurs at 7:30 pm. Live musical performance by emerging girl band, Neptunes Core at 8/8:15pm presented and sponsored by WholesomeZine.
