QCDC to Host Event for Bronzeville Youth
Fall 2012 QCDC created a platform that would provide an opportunity for youth of UNSPOKEN WORDS to take part in a violence prevention art program. The purpose of this program was to showcase the beauty Bronzeville holds and showcase this alongside the historic boulevards of the neighborhood. After long hours of coming together a wonderful mural was created...a mural showcasing art and passion! This private event will showcase snippets of the mural with live jazz and time of greatness in coming together!
Open House Chicago
Chicago Architecture Foundation will have a major stopping point at the Historic Bronzeville Visitor Information Center and a platform has been provided for our youth! Join us, Saturday, October 13, 2013 at 1:30pm as we speak out through poetry and art. Artwork will be for sale and money goes directly to youth! Help from many brings hope to all.
