The Gallery That Travels With You
While we work toward a permanent home, we’re building a traveling network of creative spaces across Chicago so access isn’t tied to a single address.
Art in Motion transforms parks, libraries, banks, storefronts, and community halls into studios of belonging—free, hands-on environments where youth create, reflect, and share. Sessions are led by practicing teaching artists; every activation uses our Spiral Studio Method to link artmaking with confidence, voice, and care. We prioritize the West and South Sides and partner closely with neighborhood organizations so each studio reflects local culture and need. Whether we’re in Austin, North Lawndale, or your block, the promise is the same: high-quality materials, joyful process, and space where young people are taken seriously as artists and thinkers.
Until we can welcome you into a permanent gallery, we’re bringing the gallery to you—one site, one studio, one community at a time.
Host Art in Motion at your site
We’d love to collaborate on a studio designed for your community. Email our Programs & Learning Manager, Anita, at anita@tcgchicago.org to bring Art in Motion: Your Edition to your park, school, library, or event.
We'd also like to thank BLICK ART MATERIALS for providing TCGC with the materials needed to launch our citywide program.
