Over the years his Immigrant Owned series has grown to include businesses in most Chicago neighborhoods as well as capture the diverse groups of immigrants that call Chicago home and the eclectic businesses they operate.

This exhibition brings together the largest selection of photographs from Castillo’s Immigrant Owned series to date and offers an opportunity to reflect on the important ways in which immigrants contribute to Chicago’s economy and cultural identity.
