Art Encounter is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering creativity and connection through close, meaningful engagement with visual art. We serve people of all ages and backgrounds across the greater Chicago area with three pillars of programming: free, educational Outreach Programs making art accessible for underserved youth, adults, and seniors; unique Public Programs for art enthusiasts, from local art tours to international art travel; and our widely-respected Evanston Mural Arts Program, which has energized all of Evanston with transformative public art.
