The Future Voyagers Exhibit
@ Epiphany Center for the Arts/Catacombs/Barcelona gallery
201 S Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60607
On view through Saturday, September 6th
The outdoors should be for everyone—but history hasn’t always shown it that way. Chicago Voyagers expands access to the outdoors for the youth and communities we serve. Through this exhibit, we hope to challenge and reimagine what exploration and adventure looks like, and who gets to be part of it.
The Future Voyagers Exhibit has commissioned Chicago-based minority artists to create stunning portraits of youth from Chicago Voyagers programs, depicted as modern-day explorers. Unlike familiar paintings throughout history, the explorers in our paintings will be as diverse as the communities we serve.
This unique event supports both community-based art and Chicago Voyagers’ mission of empowering youth through access to the outdoors. Through the Future Voyagers Exhibit, we hope to raise awareness of that mission, as well as the broader societal issues around equitable access to safe outdoor spaces. Partner with us in creating change—on the gallery walls and beyond.
