Joyce Award-Winning Playwright + Lourve Experience

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek takes a closer at the Joyce Foundation, the Chicago-based organization just handed out 5 awards to support artists of color in the Great Lakes region. He’ll catc-hup with one of the winners, a Chicago-based playwright who is partnering with the National Museum of Mexican Art on a new project. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, will join me to review Chicago Shakespeare’s premiere IT CAME FROM OUTER SPACE. Later, Gary talks to the curator behind a new immersive experience that pays homage to the Lourve. And we’ll hear about an exhibition at the Elmhurst Art Museum that highlight’s nature’s influence on contemporary design.
