Art Design Chicago is a special series of events and exhibitions that highlight the city’s unique artistic heritage and creative communities. An initiative of the Terra Foundation for American Art in partnership with artists and arts organizations across the city, Art Design Chicago seeks to expand narratives of American art with an emphasis on the city’s diverse and vibrant creative cultures and the stories they tell.

In anticipation of Art Design Chicago 2024, this series of public programs and digital storytelling amplifies the voices of Chicago’s diverse artists and designers, past and present, and explores the essential role they play in shaping the now, in the city and beyond.
