Help tell the story of South Chicago!

I'm working to create a new permanent public mural for SACRED Apartments, and community members are invited to help make sure it truly represents the people, families, history and spirit of South Chicago.

This project is looking for photographs — old and new — of South Chicago residents!

Have an old family photo from the neighborhood? A picture of a longtime resident? Photos from a block party, school, church, festival or community event? Your photos could become part of this permanent public artwork.

You can also nominate someone you believe should be represented in the mural.

I need our South Chicago neighbors, past and present, to participate and help spread the word. Let’s make sure our community’s stories and generations are represented.

Learn more and submit your photos:
https://www.vblyphoto.com/blog/sacred-apartments-mural-project/

Please share with your family, neighbors and anyone with a connection to South Chicago! All are welcome to submit.
