NORTHSIDE INDEPENDENT ARTISTS is a grassroots collective. Its members each reside on Chicago's north side. Their individual artistic visions are as diverse as the sights and sounds of the city that has nurtured them.
Over the course of three group exhibits and two smaller preview events, NIA has provided a forum for emerging artists to feature their work. More than that, NIA gives artists valuable experience. To date, the artists themselves have been responsible for planning, curating, installing, and promoting all of their shows.
NIA empowers its artists to take their careers to the next level. It is also founded on the revolutionary principle of sharing knowledge and power, for one can only rise up when one's community rises too.
