Dear Chicago Arts Partner VOTE Daily to support the Bronzeville Arts District

"Art is Business"


We’re excited to share that USA Today’s 10 Best Readers & Choice Awards has nominated the Bronzeville Arts District as America's Best Arts District!

This is a huge opportunity to shine a national spotlight on Bronzeville’s incredible businesses, vibrant community, and diverse art scene. 

As you know, the Bronzeville Arts District has held its annual Trolley Tour for two decades. We also host dozens of visual arts exhibits and musical, dance, and spoken word performances yearly. This nomination demonstrates the incredible power of our South Side arts community. We would love to inform the nation what we’re up to by being named NUMBER ONE!!
