Throughout the year we host a variety of events such as monthly networking mixers and art fairs. We host our annual gala once a year which includes art from several local Chicago artists, a live band, silent auction, and raffles. Join us and help us fundraise to help our Chicago artists, Chicago Public Schools, community centers and parks.

UPCOMING EVENTS
December 3rd,2024 – #GivingTuesday
CPS Supply Drive
Get ready for Giving Tuesday, this year on December 3rd.
At the Ingenuity Art Summit this year, a CPS art teacher stated that her budget for materials was $250 for the year. This severely limits the art projects she and her students can do.
AOG has the ideal solution, the CPS Supply Drive. This revolutionary concept has provided art supplies to over 400 classrooms.
Our goal this year is to supply 500 classrooms.
We can only do this with YOUR help!
