Art from the Park: The Exhibition was held at Unity Community Gallery, 2601 N Milwaukee Ave ( at Logan BLVD ) from Friday, July 23rd thru Sunday, July 25th, 2010. The exhibit is now closed but UPAC thanks all those who came to view and purchase pieces from the show!!
The exhibit was part of the Milwaukee Avenue Arts Festival and provided an opportunity for local artists and residents to showcase works created at July 17th's Art in the Park to a wide audience. The UNITY Community gallery, located at the corner of Milwaukee Ave & Logan Blvd, across from the Centennial monument (AKA The "Eagle") was quite the place to be with a special opening reception that was held Friday, July 23rd from 7-10pm that included food, wine and special slide show and video presentation.
During the exhibit, visitors to our gallery were able to bid on all artwork thru a special auction* that helped raise funds for UPAC programming.
*50% of sale benefits UPAC and 50% goes to artist. if work does not sell, it will be returned.
