UNDER CONSTRUCTION


  • Oak Park Art League 720 W. Chicago Ave. Oak Park IL. 60302 US (map)

This time of year comes with a chance for new beginnings, new goals for the year ahead, while we carry on with all the unfinished business of last year. We have made another revolution around the sun as we face another year, art can help us focus on goals, resolve in new directions and revolt when needed. Our own historic building is undergoing some much-needed renovation and improvement, and this is what sparked the idea for all of us to share something “under construction”

This is an open call for recent artwork inspired by new beginnings with a special emphasis on works in progress. Show your process and share something that may feel risky and unfinished.
