Chicago Artists + Arts Organizations are
invited to participate in Chicago Artists Month 2015, the 20th annual
citywide celebration of our vibrant and diverse arts community.
What is Chicago Artists Month?
Chicago Artists Month (CAM) is open to individual artists
and organizations producing events and programs that feature
Chicago-based artists in a public venue in Chicago, between
October 1 - November 15, 2015.
Event categories include: Art Walk/Tour/Festival,
Exhibition/Installation, Learning/Making, Open Studio and
Performance/Screening. As a marketing initiative of the Chicago
Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events, CAM showcases the
work of Chicago's artists and arts organizations, highlights arts
activity in the city's neighborhoods, fosters tourism, encourages
collaboration and provides opportunities for creative expression and
education for all Chicagoans.
2015 Theme
CAM invites Chicago-based artists, performers, architects,
designers, writers and other creatives, as well as arts and community
organizations, to respond to the theme
The City as Studio -
looking at Chicago as a place for innovation and experimentation.
Through this theme, CAM 2015 will be in dialog with the inaugural
Chicago Architecture Biennial, which is inviting architects and
designers from around the world to Chicago this fall. CAM 2015
prioritizes new work, increased public access to high quality art, and
collaboration.
How to Participate?
Event proposals will be accepted online only,
July 13-24, 2015, at
chicagoartistsmonth.org. The application information and criteria is available online now.
Selected proposals will be notified in August, and will then
be promoted via a robust marketing campaign. Up to 18 CAM Featured
Programs will receive additional technical and financial assistance and
be invited to nominate participating Chicago-based artists for selection
as the 2015 Featured Artists.
