Union Street Gallery’s 2025 Winter Appeal


Here at Union Street Gallery, our home on Otto Boulevard is more than just a building. It’s the heart of a community that makes everything we do possible. For 30 years, our community has transformed our base of operations into a space where creativity flourishes, ideas come alive, and people connect through the arts.

As time passes, maintaining this beloved building has become increasingly vital. The same brick walls and metal beams that give Union Street Gallery its warmth and character now need essential repairs and care to ensure they remain strong for years to come.

Your support will help preserve this nearly century old landmark and keep our doors open to the public for years to come. Every donation directly supports:

• Critical building preservation and maintenance, including structural repairs and accessibility improvements.

• Upgrades to ensure the gallery remains a safe, welcoming, and an inspiring environment for all visitors.

• Energy efficient enhancements to protect both the building and our planet.

• The continued operation of free art exhibitions, educational programs, and community events made possible by this unique space and our local leaders.

Union Street Gallery’s building is a cornerstone of the Chicago Southland. It’s a place where art, history, and community intersect. With your financial support, we can protect this space and ensure that creativity continues to thrive within our walls. Please consider making a tax deductible donation to preserve this historic home for the arts and keep it alive for the next generation of artists and art appreciators.

Thank you so much for your consideration!

Julian Graham, Gallery Director
