Episode Details

Englewood’s new outdoor sculpture garden is turning vacant lots into a vibrant arts hub, showcasing local talent and reclaiming pieces originally meant for the Magnificent Mile. Spearheaded by the Englewood Arts Collective with help from Alderman Stephanie Coleman and funded by grants—including a $100K boost—it’s a heartfelt community project where artists and neighbors come together to celebrate culture, challenge negative narratives, and create inclusive spaces like the reflective mirror gate and mural honoring elders. With art markets planned for next year and a spot at the Englewood Music Festival on September 12th, this pop-up gallery is more than just sculptures—it’s a living, breathing statement of pride and creativity right where it all began.
