Visitors will participate in a curator-led art walk in the unique and historic Chicago neighborhood of Ukrainian Village. Taking inspiration from the sights around them, participants are invited to photograph, draw, or write about their surroundings. Note, participants will need their own camera, phone, sketchbook, etc. Based on their experiences in the exhibition, viewers are encouraged to think about the mundane and banal, what catches their attention that they might have overlooked before. Subjects can range from buildings, to infrastructure, to plants, and anything else seen on the street. At the end of the walk, participants will be invited to speak about their experience and share their photographs or drawings with other participants and the curators. What did they notice? What caught their attention? How did they bring the unseen to light? After the discussion, visitors are invited to re-explore the exhibition with fresh eyes.Agenda:Exhibition viewing: 12:15 - 12:30 pm Explanation of the program: 12:30 - 1:00 pmCurator-led art walk around the neighborhood: 1:00 pm - 1:20 pmDiscussion and collection of works created on the walk, End 1:30<a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe84UDsuUwBh6tIy65JitA074QvChR-BegJEu_9PcGwQk5dug/viewform" target="_blank">UIMA Art Walk Sign-up﻿</a>
