Support Art Students, Shop Marwen's Art Fair
Marwen, a non-profit organization serving Chicago's budding youth artist community from grades 6-12, is throwing their fourth annual Art Fair to raise funds for the art career-developing programs on November 6, from 6:30 - 10pm at Marwen's gallery space in River North, 833 N. Orleans St.
The signature event is an opportunity for the approximately 130 works crafted by Marwen students, alumni, staff and teaching artists of various media to display and sell their work and is quite literally an investment in the future of Chicago artists.
The suggested donation on opening night is $20 and will be hosted with not only food, cocktails and music but a reflection with artists who will be present to discuss their work. The Art Fair exhibition will continue until Nov. 13. Hours are Saturday, Nov. 7, 12- 6pm and Mon.-Fri., 9am-6pm. Prices of the art work range from $50 - $1000.

This event is not only fun, but a great place for new collectors to begin/add to what they own with really unique work at reasonable prices. You would not believe how sophisticated some of the student work is that shows up for this event.
