Exhibition & Fundraiser at the Berghoff Restaurant's New East Wing Gallery

Hey Chicago, come celebrate with me on Thursday, May 5th

Posted Apr 19, 2011

On Thursday, May 5th I'm hosting a special event downtown. The Berghoff Restaurant is launching a new rotating art gallery in the lower-level of the historic space. The inaugural show in the East Wing Gallery features 12 of my large Chicago prints and highlights the relationship between After School Matters instructors and teen apprentices.

For the past few years I've taught a darkroom photography class through After School Matters. It's been a lot of fun and super rewarding. It's exciting to be recognized and to share our work and experiences with a larger audience. My students will be in attendance and their prints will be available at a silent auction. There's a $20 suggested donation at the door and the Berghoff will be serving delicious hors d'oeuvres. All proceeds benefit After School Matters.

I hope to see you on Thursday and introduce you to a new generation of artists!
