2024: We are happy to announce that Chicago Artopia recently received a CityArts program grant from the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events

Come see our 2024-2025 concert series! It was partially funded by the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events.

Summer 2024: We want to take a moment to give a big THANK YOU to Green Star Movement and the amazing youth panel for awarding us and working on the opportunity to help beautify the community with a mosaic mural and Amazon for funding this project. We also want to express our deepest appreciation to 23rd Ward Alderman Silvana Tabares and her wonderful staff, who worked very hard to make this possible. Without them, this project would not have been able to become a reality. Additionally, we would like to thank CSX Railroad for allowing this project to take place on their property. If you would like to be a part of this amazing community event to install the mural, please sign up by clicking here.
