The first Artist Run Spaces tour of 2010 travels the Pilsen/Bridgeport area on Saturday, January 23. Join the Art Center staff as we go off the beaten path, see new art, and talk to the artists who run the galleries. The itinerary consists of five group shows of contemporary art – from ipod art to painting and sculpture – and some drinks along the way. We will visit Antenna Gallery, Ben Russell, The Chicago Art Department, Co-Prosperity Sphere and Second Bedroom Project Space. This tour is free and will meet at 11 am at Café Jumping Bean on 18th Street. Call the Hyde Park Art Center at 773.324.5520 for more information and to reserve a spot (recommended).
This event is part of the Studio Chicago, a year-long collaborative program focused on the artist studio. Saturday, January 23 11 AM, FREE
