Project FOCUS Community Dinners: Fridays 6:30 - 9:30 PM


what?


the community dinner provides a space to share food, ideas, conversations, stories, and passions.

why?

because in light of our economic recession which has exposed us to the consequences of self-interest and individualism, we chose to build community.

because in contrast to the condo developments in pilsen and around chicago that have destroyed existing communities and replaced them with personal balconies and their grills, we chose to build community.

because we're tired of walking around the city with headphones on, closed to the diverse world around us, physically close but distant in every other way.

who?

artists, writers, dancers, social activists, teachers, young professionals, and students.


where?

an old theater converted into a Project FOCUS work and living space. 1618 W. 17th St. Chicago, IL - a few blocks from the 18th st. pink line stop.

when?

friday's 6:30 - 9:30 PM.
