Chicago Alliance of Visual Artists

Chicago Alliance of Visual Artists CAVA seeks to help promote your work through a series of more than six annual exhibitions, an annual symposium/workshop and member activities.

The Chicago Alliance of Visual Artists (CAVA) is a non-profit, tax exempt organization dedicated to helping visual artists aged 50 plus expand their horizons, promote their art and grow with over one hundred other artists throughout the greater Chicagoland area. We are also evolving as a group through the establishment of a multi-university partnership program, which will further expose your work in areas unattainable on your own or through local art guilds.
