"Homecoming" is a two-day activation from Aug 20-21 on the newly constructed Arts Lawn that invites Washington Park residents and neighborhood commuters to unwind between work and home in Washington Park's newest "third space," just steps from the Garfield Green Line CTA stop and the #55 bus route.
The activation is constructed to reclaim leisure on Chicago's South Side with a unique soundscape, refreshments, and card and board games. Attendees are meant to experiment and play with the new sound sculpture created by Chicago artists ebere agwuncha and Josué Esaú and relax on the new suite of outdoor furniture designed by APL's Design Apprenticeship Program II.
