FIRE: Exploring social environments and its implications

  • 6018NORTH 6018 N Kenmore Avenue Chicago United States (map)

Eventbrite Tickets, Facebook Event

Join us for a conversational dinner with musicians about how music has empowered them and how the arts can empower disenfranchised and marginalized youth. Guests are invited to design-build their own musical instruments with everyday objects, while enjoying a performance by a string trio. This event is day three of three featuring "elemental" programming exploring our political, natural, social environments and their implications for our community.

Curated by Chicago Mobile Makers, programmed by Wisdom Baty.

Chicago Mobile Makers creates programming that encourages Chicago youth to become advocates and change makers in their own communities through design focused skill-building workshops. Our objectives are threefold:

1. Engage and empower youth through making and skill building
2. Train and support future public interest architects, designers and makers
3. Advocate for social, economic, gender and racial diversity in the architecture and broader design fields
