About this event

  • 3 hours

The Awaken Your Dreams Poetry and Art Show is back for its third and best year yet!

Kicking off with an opening reception on May 18th at 4:00PM-7:00PM, this year’s show will showcase artwork and poetry created by K-12 students and Teaching Artists throughout the school year, centered on the theme of healing (one of ArtWell’s six core values).

Join us at The Galleries at Moore College of Art and Design, a vibrant gallery in Logan Square, to support our students’ creativity while delighting in their artistic works. Not only will attendees be able to eat, mingle, and connect with each other in a healing-centered space, but they will also experience live performances by students and feature poet and former Artwell Teaching Artist, LindoYes.

Through multi-disciplinary arts programming, ArtWell students utilize visual art and poetry as a tool to express themselves, process emotions and experiences, and cultivate their own voices. Please join us in celebrating their expression, growth, and unique perspectives! 

The exhibit will run from May 17 to May 27 to honor the tremendous work students and Teaching Artists created over the school year. If you can’t make it to the opening reception, be sure to stop in The Galleries at Moore before May 27 to see student work on display.
