“Great variety of original art, prints, hats, jewelry, and home goods all from local vendors! They have a lot of various items specific to Chicago neighborhoods and Chicago itself. Even better is that they were willing to ship the prints for not additional cost. My items came way faster than expected and were very well packaged. Would definitely go back to check out more art!”
“Holy cow! I think I just stumbled across my favorite store in all of Chicago. I don't think the reviews fully capture how expansive this store is. It is so beautifully and tastefully decorated—very similar to an art fair where each vendor has a designated space to showcase their work. I can't sing this store's praises enough. Postcards and jewelry galore, tons of Chicago souvenirs, art for people of all ages that you won't find anywhere else. I'm adding this store to my list of places to take my friends who live outside of Chicago.
Even if you're not in the mood to shop, I guarantee you will inevitably find something here that strikes your fancy. Or, just come for the layout of the store alone—it's incredible!!! The photos I took don't even capture the half of it. Just do yourself a favor and stop by, you won't regret it!”

“Great shows! Really well done with terrific casts and affordable prices, making theater accessible to those who can't afford to pay $500 per ticket. It's a wonderful place and everyone should support it!”
“Cannot remember the kind woman’s name who helped me out but I went in one day very distressed and knew I needed an aura cleanse. Whoever was working pointed me in the right direction and I’ve gotten very lucky these past few days with my life and things causing me stress and anxiety and I know it’s because of her recommendations! Her wonderful energy as well! If you see this and maybe remember me, thank you so much! Loved aura spray the most.”
“I got my first needlepoint project framed here and it turned out perfect! I was nervous to drop off a handmade piece but they had it blocked, framed, and ready for pickup within 2 weeks. Everyone there is so nice and helpful, too. 10/10 experience and definitely recommend!”
“I’ve only been here a few times, but I’m genuinely impressed. Not only are vibes consistently immaculate in this little sun drenched corner of the city, VSG embodies a refreshing avant-guard take on the modern art gallery. As a young artist and art enthusiast, I really appreciated the atmospheric emphasis on appreciating Chicago’s local talent, rather than just making a retail transaction. VSG is somewhere where people can go to experience art - not just obtain it.”
“Easy breezy parking! Lots of nearby eateries & if you overeat, you'll be minutes away from a medical district . SMILE The Center is a great warm and safe place. The instructor is amicable and a warm human being.”
“I walked into Artful Framer having never actually had anything professionally framed. Hope, the owner, was extremely patient and went over my many options, including buying a frame elsewhere and making it work! I explained to her that I had already waited a long time for this piece to arrive from overseas and that time was a major concern for me. Hope totally over delivered on the turnaround time! My partner and I couldn’t be happier with the end result! I highly recommend Hope and Artful Framer for any and all framing projects! Her patience, attention to detail, and willingness to figure something out within my budget were truly second to none! Thank you again and again Hope!”
“Harmony Art Glass Co. has now completed two major stained‑glass projects for me, and both experiences have been exceptional. Our first stained-glass window had suffered years of wear and tear from the elements, it was bowing, cracked in several places, and looked like it might not even be salvageable. The project was complex and took a few months, but the result was absolutely stunning. The craftsmanship brought the window back to life in a way that exceeded every expectation.
I originally chose Harmony Art Glass based on research and a gut feeling that they were the right company. That instinct was confirmed the moment Robert came by to assess the window. He immediately recognized the style and mentioned he had worked on our next‑door neighbor’s stained‑glass windows. That connection gave me complete reassurance that I was in the best hands.
When Robert returned to install the restored window, I mentioned that we had three old stained‑glass panels stored in the attic; pieces the previous owners had inherited from the original homeowner, who once displayed them in their formal dining room. I asked whether they could be repurposed for our foyer windows, which at the time had plain frosted glass and lacked any character. Without hesitation, Robert said it could be done.
He took on the challenge with enthusiasm, worked quickly and efficiently, and kept me updated throughout the entire process. The transformation is incredible. The foyer now has beautiful stained‑glass windows that flow perfectly with the entrance and feel like they were always meant to be part of the home.
Harmony Art Glass Co. delivers exceptional craftsmanship, honest communication, and true artistry. Robert and his team’s skill and care show in every detail. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with stained‑glass work; they’ve earned my highest recommendation.”
“I recently hosted my book release and 44th birthday celebration at NYCH Gallery, and I could not have chosen a better venue. From beginning to end, the experience was wonderful. The space is absolutely beautiful, elegant, and unique. It provided the perfect backdrop for such an important milestone in my life. I never felt like I was simply renting a venue; I felt supported throughout the entire experience.
My guests loved the space, everything came together beautifully, and I was able to truly enjoy my evening. If you’re looking for a beautiful and memorable Chicago venue for a celebration, launch, private event, or special occasion, I highly recommend NYCH Gallery.
Thank you for helping make my night everything I hoped it would be.”
“I loved this event—four generations of Hip-Hop came together to showcase their talents, all supported by Murs, Groundwaves, and Lumen Radio at Co-Prosperity Sphere in Chicago’s Bridgeport neighborhood.
This is what community, culture, and real artistry look like. ?✨ #Groundwaves #Murs #Chicago #Bridgeport #HipHop #BattlerapLovers”
“Came here to get some smiskis and they are a certified retailer! At the time they only had 4 series, but thankfully still a couple to choose from. The staff was friendly and the store had so many different toys! And blind boxes for those interested! They even have a cool hangout and chill area!”
“Great place to get shea butter lotion, handbags, clothes, and artwork. And I highly recommend to anyone looking to work with fabrics! So many incredible designs. Mama Afrika is a wonderful store owner to connect with while you shop.”
“I absolutely love this place and it makes me wish I lived in west town neighborhood so I could visit more often!! The owner is an absolutely wonderful soul and the chicago art scene is a better place because of her!”
“Corry and his team exemplify leadership through service in the way they care for their neighbors and patrons. It’s more than just an art gallery and really a special part of the neighborhood community that has been curated here. Always a pleasure to visit and it’s clear that the owner and staff take a lot of pride in the space they’ve made here. Thanks all!”
“I had the most incredible experience getting five pieces custom framed and even snagged a sixth right from the showroom! Jill is absolutely amazing! She walked me through every step of the framing process, from picking the perfect frame style to choosing the ideal matting size and figuring out the best placement in my home. I never felt rushed; she was so patient and attentive, making the whole experience a blast! Honestly, I could have easily spent the entire afternoon with her—time flew by!
I couldn’t wait to return, and I brought back even more items, including a blanket (though I had to hit pause because of a vacation coming up). I’ve used Print Unlimitd in the past, and I'm back because I was just so thrilled with the quality! Plus, Jill gave me the pricing on the spot, and I truly felt like I scored a fantastic deal. You really do get what you pay for, so I can't wait to go back again and again!”
“Well rounded art gallery with some extras. Friendly gallerists, which isn't always the case. Good programming and openness to try things - we visited for their collaboration with Vertical Gallery.”
“If you want to learn more about printmaking, start here. If you want to begin collecting art, and you'd like to start with an affordable option, start here! The owner and director, Deborah, is an artistic force of nature. An aesthetic whirlwind. And pay special attention to their holiday sale. This is a fantastic place to get a special kind of present!”
“I came here a while ago to check out the James Baldwin exhibit. It's had a lot of quotes and artwork that really encapsulate his work and life. Had to take a few walk-throughs to truly take it all in. They also served alcoholic refreshments outside for us as well which gave people a chance to mingle. It was a dope experience 9.5.”
“A home for independent artists in Chicago, and home base for Free Write Arts and Literacy, a non-profit bringing arts and literacy enrichment to incarcerated young people.”
“I learned about Janice and her work via a Block Club Chicago podcast, and I reached out to request custom painted ornaments as a holiday gift. The whole experience was excellent from start to finish - Janice's communication was great and and the ornaments turned out fantastic, even better than I had hoped. The recipient was thrilled! Really happy to have found AponteArt and Janice's amazing artistry.”

“A wonderful concert at the Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art. The pianist Myroslav Mikhailenko and violinist Julia Perekhoznuk delivered a beautiful, expressive performance with great chemistry and emotional depth. An intimate evening of music that was both moving and memorable.”

“Palette and Chisel is one of Chicago’s hidden gems. It’s a welcoming, inspiring community where artists of all skill levels can learn, grow, and create together. The instructors are exceptional, and the sense of camaraderie makes it a truly special place. I’m so thankful to be part of this amazing artistic family. ❤”
“The classes are great for kids and adults. Staff and teachers are kind and knowledgeable. Commited to art for all is great to be a part of. Art exhibits fun to walk through and great coffee shop accessible from street or center.”
“When up to Made for their 7-10 Swiss Perc drop. Was a little nervous to go up there but everyone was so friendly and helpful, they quickly made me feel at ease….
The drop was great, picked up an amazing tube…met some new friends, and had great dinner. Can’t wait to go back again!!!
Give these guys a shot, they are awesome!!!”
“Very unique experience. I was here for a community meet up. The place is clean and the owner is friendly. There is a story behind every pieces of artwork for you to explore!”

“I recently visited Josh Moulton’s Fine Art Gallery in Lincoln Park, and it was an incredible experience. I came in to look at some of Josh’s original works, and he was incredibly helpful and informative throughout my visit. His gallery features a wide range of stunning pieces, including iconic Chicago landmarks and beloved spots like the Chicago lakefront and Butch McGuire’s.
Josh’s talent truly shines through in his art, but what stood out even more was his exceptional level of customer service. He made me feel welcome and took the time to share insights about his work and process. I’m so glad I found his high-end gallery, and I’m already looking forward to visiting again in the future. I highly recommend Josh Moulton to anyone who appreciates fine art and outstanding service!”
