Threewalls NFP

Threewalls, an ever-evolving Blk art space, fosters contemporary art practices that respond to lived experiences, encouraging connections beyond art. Founded in 2003, the organization continues its purpose to support artists often marginalized because of their non-commercial and experimental practices. Over the past 6 years, Threewalls evolved to further fill a gap for Chicago-based ALAANA-identified artists, who have been historically excluded from financial, curatorial, and programmatic support. Our work, developed within a Blk-feminist and Diasporic traditions, is exclusively centered on and for ALAANA artists, decentralizes where art and art programming happen, and serves as a bridge between artists and Chicago community members.
