Creative Currency: Words to Live By

Chicago Calling, Phantom Gallery, and Caryl Alexander’s Artists With Purpose today announced a call for artists and designers to uniquely, and in collaboration with faith- and community-based organizations, “ante up” their creative currency in the run-up to the November elections and beyond.

The signs will be installed both in Chicago and in your own community.
