Quote of the day: Wicker Park is still about the art

“There are a lot less artists that live here, because the real estate prices have gone up…but there are alternative gallery spaces emerging now. It’s less commercial, more experimental [than River North or the West Loop]. It’s much more of a sort of community environment here. It’s not a major for-profit industry here. It’s more about the art.”

– Allison Stites, executive director of Around the Coyote Gallery, 1935 ½ W North Ave
