The next DIY Chi Collective meeting is
Monday, March 19th – 8pm @ The Juicer (1238 N. Noble)

If you want a diy, sustainable show space in Chicago, come help make it happen! It’s a lot of work and the more dedicated people involved, the more likely it is that it will happen.

Show up at 1238 N. Noble. Just walk in the front door to the left of the windows. It’s a casual group environment. It won’t be intimidating. We’ll definitely do a big re-cap of where we are in the process and how to be involved.

Most importantly, this is a collective! It can serve whatever purpose it’s members need it to. If you have an idea, but haven’t seen it talked about in any DIY Chi collective discussions, that doesn’t mean it can’t/won’t happen. Come to a meeting and bring it up!

The next DIY Chi Collective meeting is
Sunday, October 23rd – 8pm @ The Juicer (1238 N. Noble)

If you want a diy, sustainable show space in Chicago, come help make it happen! It’s a lot of work and the more dedicated people involved, the more likely it is that it will happen.

Show up at 1238 N. Noble. Just walk in the front door to the left of the windows. It’s a casual group environment. It won’t be intimidating. We’ll definitely do a big re-cap of where we are in the process and how to be involved.

Most importantly, this is a collective! It can serve whatever purpose it’s members need it to. If you have an idea, but haven’t seen it talked about in any DIY Chi collective discussions, that doesn’t mean it can’t/won’t happen. Come to a meeting and bring it up!

Invisible Children Movie Screening

“There is an invisible war in Africa: one man, Joseph Kony, terrorizing 4 countries. It is the longest running conflict on the continent, and the soldiers are children abducted from their homes and forced to fight.

We are a movement seeking to end this conflict and bring them home. We seek to rebuild schools, educate future leaders, and provide jobs in Northern Uganda. We are the motivated misfits and masses redefining what it means to be an activist.”

If you want a diy, sustainable show space in Chicago, come help make it happen! It’s a lot of work and the more dedicated people involved, the more likely it is that it will happen.

Show up at 1238 N. Noble. Just walk in the front door to the left of the windows. It’s a casual group environment. It won’t be intimidating. We’ll definitely do a big re-cap of where we are in the process and how to be involved.

Most importantly, this is a collective! It can serve whatever purpose it’s members need it to. If you have an idea, but haven’t seen it talked about in any DIY Chi collective discussions, that doesn’t mean it can’t/won’t happen. Come to a meeting and bring it up!
