CALL FOR WALLS: Help Bring New Public Art to the Community
Since 2017, the Lakeview Public Art Committee has worked to identify innovative artists and secure funding to support the display of public works of art in highly-visible locations. For every new mural we bring to the community, there are countless hours spent reaching out to property owners getting permission to install a mural on their building walls. Over 16 murals and exhibits have been installed to date, and now, we need your help. The Lakeview Public Art Committee is calling on all landlords, tenants, neighborhood groups and business owners to submit ideas for highly-visible walls to host new pieces of public art in 2022 and beyond. If you own a building or know someone who owns a building in Lakeview or Roscoe Village that would like to feature a new mural, please get in touch with Nicole McLellan at Nicole@lrvcc.org or call 773 472 7171 x102 to provide more details and discuss feasibility of a new piece of public art. |

Lakeview is Blooming this Mother’s Day – Dedication of Artist Ouizi’s Mural “Urbs in Horto” to Take Place May 12th
Lakeview to Pass Out Flowers to Moms in Celebration of Mother’s Day, Mural’s Completion
CHICAGO (April 29, 2019) – Bright, beautiful Chrysanthemums, roses and Echinacea are in full bloom along the Southport Corridor thanks to a brand new, 2,000 square foot mural by Detroit-based artist Louise Jones, also known as Ouizi. In the Lakeview mural, Ouizi draws inspiration from the Japanese art movement ukiyo-e and traditional Chinese painting style guóhuà to illustrate a floral history of Chicago.

Chicago’s Southport Corridor Ouizi Mural
The CVS North of Addison on Southport has received an amazing extreme makeover mural from Louise “Ouizi” Jones this spring.
Two blossoming murals are set to go up in Chicago’s Lake View and West Town neighborhoods just in time for spring. Created by Detroit-based artist Louise “Ouizi” Jones, the murals will be painted at 1914 W. Chicago Avenue in West Town and 3637 N. Southport Ave in Lakeview, with both pieces set to be complete by May.
