Events & Happenings

April 2026

  • This is a BYO materials kind of deal but it is very low key, the idea is to create the space to explore not make a masterpiece. This is the perfect outlet for someone looking to try something new or dust of long forgotten art supplies. There will be coffee, music, and friends old and new. We may have meditation openers or special treats - who knows! Dates and sign ups here

  • Friday 11:30-12:30p

    Join us for a jaunt through Chicago's largest and most prestigious art fair, ExpoChicago!

    In reviewing exhibitors, Maggie has already found some exciting artists whose works I have been eager to see in person. We will take a spin Thursday night to ensure easy maneuvering for the group on Friday. We will email more specific instructions for meeting up as the day nears as well as send venmo requests for tickets as if we get a certain number of sign ups we will be able to purchase at group rates. 

    Can't wait to see you there! Register here

    The Chicago art community is celebrated not only for its excellence but for its welcoming and collaborative nature. There is an openness and friendliness within the Chicago Arts and Lillstreet Art Center is the very embodiment of this ethos. Lillstreet started in Lincoln Park 50 years ago and has evolved into the thriving and dynamic art community it is today. Join us for a viewing of the new documentary, Dream A Lill - produced by Good Chaos in partnership with the Lillstreet team. Following the viewing we will have a lively discussion around art and community with Lillstreet’s Director of Ceramics Programming, Kirin Kane, and showcase the work of one of their artists in residence. The night will culminate in a collaborative project that will be exhibited at Pallas Studio for the following weeks.

    We will serve drinks and a creative take on movie concessions. The event is free to attend but space is limited so please let us know if your plans change! Tickets here

    The new moon arrives in Scorpio on May 1. Dust off your journal and join Colleen of Coco Ryan Astrology for a New Moon Circle. We're gathering for an evening of altar-building, poetry, myth, and storytelling, because Scorpio season deserves more than a scented candle and a nap.

    We'll go deep, we'll go dark, and we'll come back with new insights, and inspired awe. Tickets here
