The Evanston Made Group Show is an annual showcase of art and handmade goods created by our members. This exhibit is FREE to enter and non juried; we believe every artist deserves at least ONE equitable and accessible exhibit a year.

Mediums on exhibit and for sale include 2D original art (paintings, photography, collage, textile, etc.) and prints, 3D sculpture, ceramics and original pieces from jewelry to book and paper arts.
