Sustainability, Community, and the Arts in Chicago
@ Co-Prosperity
3219 S Morgan St, Chicago, IL 60608
Opening Saturday, May 10th, from 11AM - 12:30PM
In our current political climate, it’s more important than ever for artists, administrators, and community members to work together to promote sustainability. Join us for a panel discussion on how sustainability affects the art community both locally and nationally, and why it’s so important for artists and art administrators to view their work with an environmental lens.
