Public Works and Someoddpilot present “The Fan Club,” a new program to support Chicago independent music venues through public art exhibitions.

The first show features artwork that pays tribute to some of Chicago’s most beloved independent music venues. True to Public Works’ mission of accessibility and in consideration of the COVID pandemic, The Fan Club will take place entirely in the streets of Chicago, with wheat-pasted original art Prints plastered in the Wicker Park, Humboldt Park, Logan Square, Avondale, Pilsen, and Bronzeville neighborhoods for easy, socially-distanced public viewing.

The eight featured artists, all of whom are local to Chicago, and the venues that inspired their work are as follows: Whitney Colley for The Whistler, Ashley King for Hungry Brain, Alexa Viscius for The Whistler, Charlotte Croy Hudson for Thalia Hall, Bill Connors for Empty Bottle, Joi Fulton for Sleeping Village, Julio Ruiz-Santana for Subterranean, and Nathan Hanley for The Promontory.
