Art on Track Event: You Going?

Posted Aug. 28 at 8:15 a.m.

Want to check out something positive on public transit? How about some exciting artowrk on the "L"? If the answer is yes to both, you're in luck. This weekend, some very passionate locals rented an "L" train and will turn it into an 8-car art exhibit on Saturday, Aug. 30.

Participating galleries include: The Flat Iron Artists Group, The Silver Room, Colibri Studio Gallery, Peter Jones Studio/Gallery and Quennect 4, according to a release sent over by the event organizers.

Sounds like a great time, so if you want to go, it's $5 (fare waived) and participants should meet at the Wabash/Adams entrance for a ride around the Loop from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. You can pre-purchase your tix at chicagoartontrack.com, where you also will find more deets.

Let's just hope the CTA gets the train there on time. Ba dum dum!
