The Arts Club of Chicago

Located in River North, the Arts Club of Chicago has been collecting and celebrating modern and contemporary artists since 1916. The Arts Club is sort of a mashup between museum, gallery and venue. While they only host three to four special exhibitions a year, they’re incredibly thoughtful and well curated, giving specific attention to the robust local art scene. The same thought and consideration is put into their public programs calendar: the Arts Club has been host to classical musicians, performance artists, professors, authors, journalist, and curators alike. The second floor and private rooms contain most of the permanent collection, but are only available by appointment, so be sure to call before visiting.
