ArtSeed

ArtSeed is an expansion on KidsMobile, a mobile creative play program engaging culture, nature, and art with youth and families across Chicago. ArtSeed engages over 2,000 young people (ages 3-12) across 35 parks evenly distributed across Chicago’s North, West, and South Sides for two hour bi-weekly pop-up art-making sessions. Youth participate in storytelling, music, movement, and nature play rooted in neighborhood stories. Children explore the histories and legacies of Chicago’s community-based artists and imagine creative solutions to challenges in their own neighborhoods.
