Local, national and international artists help beautify Chicago streets to the delight of residents, visitors and tourists. The yearly parade of trucks and cranes traveling around city streets to remove the previous year’s sculptures and install current works is complete. To celebrate the completion, a Kick-Off party is scheduled for Friday, June 28th at Sedgwick Studio (1544 N Sedgwick) from 6 – 9 PM and is open to all. The CSE motto “Admission is Free” also applies to the Kick-Off.Contributing to this year’s exhibit are local, national and international artists.

Patricia Corredor-Canon makes her debut from Bogota, Colombia. &nbsp;CSE is juried by Board members and sponsors or their representatives, ensuring community partners are taking part in the selection process. CSE sponsors include individuals, neighborhood organizations, cultural institutions and corporations, both large and small. &nbsp;The sculptures included in the 2019 show will remain on display through May of 2020. All artworks are for sale at the conclusion of the show with a small percentage of each sale supporting the work of CSE. &nbsp;This year’s Kick-Off party will include a unique way-finding installation.
