cps lives artist residency 2024-2025
CPS Lives is accepting applications for the 2023-2024 school year!
CPS (Chicago Public Schools) Lives is a 501(c)(3) non-profit arts organization founded in 2017 by photographer Suzette Bross. CPS Lives pairs Chicago artists with a Chicago Public School to create a residency during the academic year. Each of our artists creates and collaborates with their school on a unique project which will share the individual story of each Chicago Public School. Each story is celebrated and exhibited at local community spaces, virtual and in person gallery shows, as well as existing on the CPS Lives website. CPSLives.org serves as an accessible digital archive of history for students, families, community members, educators, administrators, policymakers & the general public.
