!This Thursday join us at Arcade Place between Monroe and Wells for the final ACTIVATE of the season series, curated/produced by Canvas in partnership with The Chicago Loop!
We have always wanted to bring together our friends and the fabric of Chicago for a one night showcase of live workshops and sewing demonstrations with stylized installations and fashion presentations! We're also beyond ecstatic to have the Futurehood family take the stage for a beautifully curated showcase by Mister Wallace. Check out some of the folks involved.

Special thanks to Xandra Rodriguez-Louvre for the graphic!
We are excited to feature work from a collection of shot by Christopher Andrew (Stoptime Live) and processed by DrmBt.
Don’t miss this on display tomorrow 7/12 as part of Activate 2018: TunnelVision from 5-10pm at 16 E Monroe.
In collaboration with Chicago Loop Alliance, Canvas is curating and producing the 2018 ACTIVATE event series.
The series host is a character named EVO, who is a manifestation of Chicago's collective intentions, and who is able to open portals to enter alternate dimensions full of new sights, sounds, and experiences.
EVO's portal next opens on July 12th at the Sullivan Center Alley (16 E Monroe) for Activate 2018: TunnelVision. Curated by DrmBt of Canvas, TunnelVision transforms a historic space into a pixelated abyss, bringing Chicago's underground digital media scene to the main stage. Step through EVO's portal and experiment with music, technology, visual art and interactive media-all in the dock of a building that embodies the city's visionary spirit and post-fire innovation.
The event is free and open to the public. RSVP in advance for a free drink ticket: https://www.facebook.com/events/207590670079373/
