Art Encouter's 39th Anniversary Gala

Location: OVATION (2324 W. Fulton Street, Chicago, IL 60612)

Art is a means to social change and everyone should have access to that means.

Please join us to celebrate the power of art to change lives!

Our Spring Gala honors Bob Hiebert and the late Sid Block who founded Printworks Gallery over 36 years ago. Featuring works on paper by both internationally renowned and under recognized artists, Bob and Sid created a comfortable atmosphere where anyone regardless of their level of artistic experience was welcomed. Their belief in the importance of art for all people echoes Art Encounter's commitment to bring art experiences to under served communities as well as the public. Highlighting the event is an auction of art works donated by top notch artists eager to honor Bob and Sid and support Art Encounter's extensive outreach programming.
