WMG'S 20 Neighborhoods project is back in action for a second year of art-making and community-building, this time united under the theme "A City of Communities".  

Thirteen of last year's project partners and fifteen teaching artists are joining forces in groups of ones and twos to carry out arts workshops and Community Showcase exhibitions in nine neighborhoods across Chicago, with a focus on collaborative art creation and a goal of deepening connections between communities.  

As part of Chicago Artists Month, all of the groups will come together for a final exhibition at Woman Made Gallery, from October 26th through October 31st. The opening reception will take place on October 26th from 1 to 5pm, and is free and open to the public.  

Woman Made Gallery (WMG) is a tax-exempt, not-for-profit organization founded in 1992. Its goal is to support, cultivate, and promote the diverse contributions of women in the arts through exhibitions and other programs that serve, educate, and enrich our community.

Woman Made Gallery is supported in part by grants from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency; a CityArts Program II grant from the City of Chicago, Department of Cultural Affairs; the Arts Work Fund for Organizational Development, a donor-advised fund of the Chicago Community Trust; the Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley Foundation; The Efroymson Family Fund, a CICF Fund; a major anonymous donor; and the generosity of its members and contributors.
