Garage Art Fair Fun

On September 29, Downtown Evanston held Oktoberfest, and in conjunction with it Evanston Made organized a Makers Market.

My outdoor show track record is horrendous, so having a roof over my head that wouldn’t blow away made […]

Evanston Sidewalk Sale Pods

Sauce Walk! A Neighborhood Art & Dessert Crawl

Angel has photobombed the wine walk in September, and we’ve warmed up during the Warm Bevvy Walk in December. This year, the Main-Dempster Mile is adding another walk to its repertoire with the Sauce Walk!  On Thursday, May 17 I will be popping up a temporary gallery in Dietrich 21/D21 during Sauce Walk, A Neighborhood Art […]

June has flown by, and this is the final week to see all the Evanston Made art on display at the Evanston Art Center. As of July 1, all this lovely art will be off to new owners or back to artists’ studios. To celebrate the success of this annual event, Evanston Made is hosting […]

Evanston Made 2017 Tour

For 4 years in a row, Evanston Made has been held the first weekend of June. Evanston-based artists open their private studios for one day only, so the public can see where they create. In addition, local businesses partner with artists to display their work all month long (if not on a more long-term basis, […]

Art studios, galleries, museums and […]
