A closer look at our 2nd floor art display case 🎨

We transform this space with new works from local artists, businesses, and cultural partners — each with a story worth discovering.

This April and May, we’ve been excited to feature pieces inspired by Matisse’s Jazz: Rhythms in Color in partnership with the Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the bold and colorful cut-paper works of Henri Matisse.

Next time you’re in the neighborhood, stop by the 2nd floor and see what’s on display. ✨

Featured in order of appearance: Natasha Moustache, Andi Crist, Nuestro Chicago Archives, and the Art Institute of Chicago.
