Oh boy!2007 Artists of the Wall Festival
14th Annual Rogers Park Event
June 16th & 17th
Theme:“Our Secret Garden"
Every summer, on Father's Day weekend (whoops! we don't want to be "divisive," and "father" is a sexist, exclusionary term; we regret the error), the concrete bench between Pratt and Morse in Rogers Park is painted over by local residents. The program was originated as a way to combat gang graffiti.
The "Artists of the Wall Festival" will be at Loyola Beach Park on June 16-17, 2007. Artists who paint the bench have to shuck over $30.00 per "square" to paint on the bench. Where the heck that money goes is anyone's guess, but we're guessing none of it will go to repair the massive potholes along the beachfront.
