Feeling Lonely? Join an Arts Organization

In recent weeks we've heard about two local arts orgs that are looking for new members. Printmakers -- including aspiring ones as well as seasoned pros -- can join up with Spudnik Press, the West Town cooperative that offers common studio space with the ability to make traditional as well as photographic litho, relief, and silkscreen prints. For a monthly fee, Spudnik members can use the studio for all but a few hours out of the week, when it hosts classes and special events. Visit their website for more info.

Also, the Pilsen-based gallery the Chicago Art Department is looking for new members to join its new studio space right near Spudnik at W. Hubbard and N. Ashland. Find out more about their membership policy, including fees, right here.
