ACRE Partner Galleries Tour
For EXPO CHICAGO
Saturday, September 22, 4-9pm
Departs from entrance of Navy Pier

..

ACRE (Artists’ Cooperative Residency & Exhibitions) has organized a tour of several Chicago non-commercial and artist-run exhibition spaces. Featuring ACRE’s partner galleries, this tour provides a snapshot of the do-it-yourself ethos that is the engine of Chicago’s young art community. Those not registered for the VIP bus tour are welcome to follow along in their cars.

Join us as we tour this network’s season-opening exhibitions, and have en-route discussions about the artwork and spaces. Meet the artists and organizers that make Chicago’s young arts community thrive, and enjoy Lagunitas beer at each venue along the way.
..
*Please note this tour is only open to EXPO VIP patrons. HOWEVER, anyone can tag along in a car, bike, etc.
VIPs can register for the tour here: http://www.expochicago.com/vip
