The Hyde Park Art Center has set a goal of getting 700 people to Support Local by becoming a member or making a donation by the end of 2010.
By supporting the Hyde Park Art Center, you’re not only investing in the success of the Art Center but also the quality of life of the 45,000 people the Art Center reaches every year throughout Chicago and beyond.
In your own backyard, we’re providing a place where anyone from the artistically curious to the established artist can make, learn about, exhibit, discuss, and engage with art.
These experiences are what enrich our lives, connect us to others, and inspire us to be great.Click here to Support Local today.
Your involvement truly makes a difference.
