From fundamentals like line, shape, and color to intangibles like communication, creative problem-solving, and risk-taking, the cross-pollination of art and design is undeniable. We’re thrilled to partner with the Chicago Public Schools Department of Arts Education again this year to offer recognition to hundreds of hard-working student artists from across the city.

All-City Visual Arts Programs provide a unique opportunity to showcase student achievement in visual and media arts and exhibit their work in highly-visible, public exhibition spaces in Chicago. The high school exhibition showcases 2D, 3D, and digital artwork by students from pre-K through 12th grade.

The exhibition will take place in our gallery as well as virtually on cpsallcityvisualarts.org.

The opening reception will be held on May 1.
