Architreasures activates communities through the power of art and design. They facilitate participatory art and design projects and neighborhood cultural programs that transform public space, improve quality of life, and make beautiful, livable, and healthy communities throughout Chicago.
Founded in 1996, Architreasures was formed by architects and members of community development organizations who recognized the urgent need for Chicago communities to organize, build capacity, and participate in the redevelopment of their neighborhoods. They understood that when people are involved in making decisions about their own surroundings, they have a greater connection and sense of respect for what's around them.
Architreasures engages residents and partnering organizations in creative endeavors that improve public space and advance the social, cultural, economic, and health goals of a community. Through the collaborative art and design process, people are empowered to shape how their environments look, feel, and are used, and to impact the future of their communities. In the past 25 years, Architreasures has completed over 150 projects that contribute to the livability of some of Chicago's most underserved neighborhoods.
The original art and design work Architreasures produces—from murals, mosaics and sculptures, to gardens, benches, and books—bring beauty and comfort to people’s homes and neighborhoods, reflect the spirit of our community partners, and make people proud of where they live.
