Drawing inspiration from exhibitions across the MCA, as well as Chicago History Museum’s Designing for Change: Chicago Protest Art of the 1960s–70s, this educator-focused event invites participants to explore grassroots contemporary arts projects aimed at supporting students and communities.
Led by Eric Von Haynes, this hands-on workshop examines how language and design can inspire change. Using works and ideas from City in a Garden and Designing for Change, participants will craft acrostics to produce text-based artworks that highlight growth, care, print culture, and collective strength in Chicago’s activist history.
