Dreaming Circles
In 2023, Threewalls celebrates its 20th anniversary by dreaming of a racially just future through Dreaming of a Future.
With artists and community at the heart of our project, we will host Dreaming Circles, where artists and their neighbors collectively dreamed of a future Chicago.
Dreaming of a Future
In 2023, Threewalls will reach an important milestone: twenty years of supporting contemporary visual artists in Chicago. Founded and led by artists, the organization continues to hold space for Chicago artists, particularly those who are not engaged with commercialized practices, and build relationships across various communities. Our history of centering artists, offering first time opportunities, and being responsive to artists’ needs remain part of our ethos.
In-Session
Implemented in 2017, In-Session is a remix of a traditional lecture or panel and critical interdisciplinary salon that incorporates reading, conversation, and response together. The salons are focused on a selection from a shared reading list which is compiled by Threewalls and based on a theme. The curated reading list is an act of decolonization: citing texts and creators that are not centered in mainstream culture and expanding scholarship that shapes lived experiences of our Threewalls community.
