4th Annual Humboldt Park Art Fair is a rapidly growing outdoor summer festival that takes place in and around the Boat House of Humboldt Park (1400 N Sacramento Chicago, IL)

 

This year's festival will feature art from over 50 emerging and professional artists, over 10 bands, an independent film festival, open mic poetry and more!

 

Humboldt Park Art Fair is produced by Graffiti Zone , a non-profit community art studio, located in Humboldt Park. GZ provides after-school art programs for students from underserved neighborhoods but welcomes youth of all ages and educational backgrounds. HPAF is a Graffiti Zone initiative. They have been organizing this festival with the goal of providing an opportunity for artists from these communities to exhibit and sell their art alongside more established and professional artists. Proceeds from the festival will benefit Graffiti Zone. Jody Cooley, Director of Graffiti Zone and HPAF is available for interview by phone or in person. Please let me know and I'll put you in touch with her.

Graffiti Zone is an after-school arts program for underserved youth.  Its purpose is to create a safe environment in which kids can connect with themselves and their community through art making and arts promotion. Graffiti Zone strives to support artists of all ages by proving opportunites to show and sell their work. We also provide supports for students and local artists to gain valuable teaching experience and have access to studio space to work on their own art.
