SUMMARY:The Promised Land
DESCRIPTION:Eleven artists with ties to North and South of the Mason-Dixon Line respond to just how much Black life has always been in transit. \n  \nThe Great Migration was one of the largest movements of people in United States history. It has transformed cities like Chicago\, Detroit\, New York and Pittsburgh between 1916 and 1970. Chicago received more than 500\,000 Black Southern Americans during this time.\n  \nTo Southern Blacks\, Chicago was considered the “Promised Land”. Stories of big city life — jobs with good wages\, homes with running water\, and basic freedoms denied to Blacks in the South — made the Northern city a prime destination for Blacks coming from below the Mason-Dixon line. As the most documented migration in US history\, photographers like Gordon Parks\, Florestine Perrault Collins\, Moneta Sleet Jr.\, Roy DeCarava\, and Coreen Simpson created imagery that demonstrated Black life in movement.\n\nToday\, contemporary artists and image makers respond to the many migrations of African Diaspora peoples and the influences of these movements in their work.

SUMMARY:Arctic Highways
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit discusses the exploitation of Indigenous land and how imposed borders of nation-states have erased the natural land borders used by Indigenous peoples. Nine Sami artists and three Indigenous artists from Canada and the United States want to use this exhibit to start a dialogue\, raise questions\, and establish waypoints between their culture and ours. This exhibit takes us on a journey through an Arctic highway of culture and life\, stretching from the past into the future.

SUMMARY:The Negro Motorist Green Book
DESCRIPTION:“The Negro Motorist Green Book” guided Black Americans to thousands of businesses for over thirty years. When the first “Green Book” was published\, the American road was a metaphor for freedom: freedom to change your present situation\, determine your destiny\, and travel. Yet\, in 20th-century America\, this same road was a dangerous place for Black travelers. The land was divided by segregation — through policy and through custom. For Black people\, the prejudice was severe: a systematic effort to deny their basic human rights. In an era of Jim Crow laws and “sundown towns\,” communities that explicitly prohibited Black travelers from staying overnight\, the “Green Book” offered critical\, life-saving information and sanctuary. \nNow\, through The Negro Motorist Green Book\, visitors will explore film\, photographs\, interactives\, and oral histories from travelers and “Green Book” business owners; compare “Green Book” sites then and now; and appreciate historical objects from the Smithsonian and from a variety of “Green Book” sites. The exhibition includes artifacts from business signs and postcards to historic footage\, images\, and firsthand accounts that illustrate not just the apprehension felt by Black travelers\, but also the resilience\, innovation\, and elegance of people choosing to live a full American existence. \nDeveloped by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) in collaboration with award-winning author\, photographer\, and cultural documentarian\, Candacy Taylor\, Green Book offers an immersive look at the historic reality of travel for Black Americans and how the guide served as an indispensable resource for the rise of the Black leisure class in the United States. The exhibition highlights destinations created by Black Americans and strategies that affirmed their humanity\, their worth\, their light\, and their lives – and how it was done with ingenuity\, community\, and with help from Victor Green and his travel guide: “The Negro Motorist Green Book.”

SUMMARY:Aesthetics of Loss
DESCRIPTION:AESTHETICS OF LOSS is a collection of work by seven artists who have experienced loss of family members recently. Their studios became places for grieving and understanding the sudden vacuum of losing loved ones either suddenly or over a long period of illness. Caregiving\, memory\, helplessness\, loss and the ultimate mystery of death are explored through painting\, print-making\, fibers\, ceramics\, photography\, installation and video. Some artists utilize objects and clothing left behind by their loved ones and transform them into artworks and some use ritual and natural materials as memorial or commemorative actions of grieving and coming to terms. \nEbti is a multidisciplinary artist\, a self-taught photographer and a translator living between Cairo and San Francisco. She received her MFA in Fine Art from the California College of the Arts in 2021. Her practice is informed by languages\, theater\, literature\, music and her family’s making-traditions she never got to learn. Through this multi- faceted\, dislocated lens she looks at the ideas of home\, belonging\, and attachment. Though her work is rooted in photography\, she is constantly looking for new materials and methods that will best translate her ideas. Once she starts working on a project\, she embraces notions of accident and failure. Her practice is ever-evolving and is influenced by her restlessness. \nCassidy Early (b. 1994\, Worcester\, MA) is a nonbinary Scottish American artist living and working in Chicago\, IL.

Hernández is a Chicana artist\, curator\, educator\, and death doula guided by socially-engaged values. In developing as an artist\, Brianna credits her late mother\, Sylvia D. Hernández\, as her most significant mentor. Brianna’s studio practice focuses on end-of-life care\, grieving processes\, and mourning rituals based on lived experience\, cultural research\, and collaborations with peers. In addition to formal artworks\, she offers workshops or viewers to self-educate on grief and end-of-life planning through the safety of the creative process. As a curator\, Brianna works with artists to make socially-charged topics publicly accessible in order to create opportunities for education and empathy. She also collaborates with community health researchers to incorporate the arts into public health projects through curatorial consulting. Brianna proudly serves as Director of Curation and Board Secretary at Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio on the Shinnecock Indian Reservation in Southampton\, New York. \nLinda b.

SUMMARY:Beginning of New Life
DESCRIPTION:Esther Park Solo Exhibition \nMar. 10-22\, 2023 \nI am a self-taught artist and have been working for the past 3 years on telling my journey of healing through art. I remember a vision that Jesus had given me years ago; that vision is painting for a time as this. \nI was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in 2019. When I could no longer endure the hard moments by myself Jesus inspired me to release those emotions on the canvas. I felt a strong connection with the Lord during the times when I could listen\, talk\, and pray to Him while I was painting. I found that painting was a way to express myself and bring about emotional healing. I am still going through chemotherapy but am finding the strength to prepare for my exhibitions so that those who are losing hope and going through physical hardships can be encouraged and inspired by these paintings. \n Esther Park \nwww.heparkart.com

SUMMARY:Paint Night
DESCRIPTION:Хайде да рисуваме\nВОДЕЩ: Сашка Аначкова\n\n\nОЧАКВАМЕ ВИ!\n 18 март от 19:00ч.\nРезервации: https://magurabcs.com/regi…/2vrwqzh2vu05rmogoqhtndnlmop5ha\n 1.224.800.1538\n\n\nНевъзможно е в рамките на една творческа вечер и в една картина да изразим чувството на гордост от националната си принадлежност! Изглежда дори абсурден опитът да възхвалим жената и женското начало в тези рамки! Трудно е и да съберем и изразим благодарността си за това\, че българските традиции и ценности са ни съхранили във времето. Същите\, които в настоящето ни предоставят възможността да сме важна част\, съществен свързващ елемент между миналото и бъдещето. Само като ги запазваме и предаваме на поколенията получаваме усещането\, че сме частица от нещо по-важно и по- значимо… И точно това ни предпазва да не надвишим умерената доза на съвременната “арогантност”.\nИма нещо магнетично и свещено в българското знаме\, българската природа\, българската носия и българката!\nКартината всъщност няма да е една. Тя ще оживее и ще се размножи в толкова картини\, колкото ще бъдем всички ние. Затова и надеждата ми е\, че тази вечер ще запали “жарава”\, която ще тлее дълго след края на вечерта. Остава ми вярата\, че е постижимо…”\n\n\n\n“Хайде да рисуваме” е рубрика на център “Магура”\, предлагаща приятна и релаксираща форма на общуване в съботната вечер.\n\n\nПодходяща е за всички\, които имат желание да рисуват в компанията на приятели\, близки\, любими\, както и да се запознаят с нови хора.\n\n\nТемите и техниките са различни и за вдъхновение се използват творби на известни художници\, както и оригиналите на самите водещи.\n\n\nВсеки е творец и предварителен опит не е необходим\, достатъчно е само желание!\n\n\nКЦ “Магура” приветства художници и творци готови да споделят своето вдъхновение\, като водещи в рубриката.

SUMMARY:Shane Hennessy in Concert!
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an all ages show staring international touring sensation Shane Hennessy in concert in the Mayfair Theatre at the Irish American Heritage Center\, Sunday\, March 19th at 6:30pm.\nBilled as “one of the most exciting live performers of his generation\, with an ability to move between styles and genres with ease ” by Irish Music Magazine\, audiences can never be too sure what will come next during the exciting mix of jazz\, blues\, country\, soul\, traditional Irish music\, and world music he offers. With the addition of some smooth vocals\, genre-hopping improvisations\, and well-arranged covers\, it makes sense why music legend super-producer Nile Rodgers (CHIC) thinks that “ his style is killer\, it’s really cool stuff \,” and why guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel says that Shane “ transcends the guitar the same way Muhammed Ali transcended boxing.”\nTickets are $30\, $25 for members. Tickets for groups of ten or more are $22.\nPurchase here: Tickets for Shane

SUMMARY:Venice\, Crete\, and the Birth of the Modern World
DESCRIPTION:Location:  \n\n\nBetween 1204 and 1669\, Crete (the largest Greek island) was under the control of the Republic of Venice\, an upstart maritime power now most remembered for its role in the Italian Renaissance.

SUMMARY:Stained-Glass in Chicago's Synagogues
DESCRIPTION:When we think of stained glass windows\, we often think of Churches. Synagogues also have a rich tradition of stained-glass windows. Join us as we explore how these windows beautify sacred spaces across Chicago. \nIn 2021 Chicagoans were alerted to the possibility of the Loop Synagogue closing due to the impact of the pandemic. Fortunately\, the synagogue has recovered\, but the possibility raised concern about the fate of its magnificent stained glass window\, “Let There be Light” by Abraham Rattner. While this is undoubtedly the city’s best-known synagogue stained-glass window\, there are many others\, ranging from nineteenth century anonymous works to some by well-known artists. We will feature them in the program. \nThis presentation will expand our understanding of stained-glass windows in area synagogues as we explore the artists behind these windows and what happens to the windows when synagogues move and/or close. \nThis is a virtual program with a $15 registration fee and is free for CAC Members \nPRESENTER: SUSAN JACOBSON\n \nSusan Jacobson has been a docent since 2008 and gives nine different tours. She is co-director of Synagogues by Bus and Tiffany Treasures. Prior to becoming a docent\, Susan enjoyed a 40-year career in academic librarianship at the University of Pennsylvania\, Columbia University\, and the University of Illinois in Chicago.
