Evanston Made Members Group Show 2026 : Open House

The Evanston Made Group Show is an annual showcase of art and handmade goods created by our members. This exhibit is FREE to enter and non juried; we believe every artist deserves at least ONE equitable and accessible exhibit a year.

We plan to exhibit Small Works to maximize our new space Shop Evanston Made at 822 Dempster St. Exhibit runs November 6 - November 15.

The exhibit will open to the public with an open house, hosted Nov. 6, 12-8p.

Mediums on exhibit and for sale include 2D original art (paintings, photography, collage, textile, etc.) and prints, 3D sculpture, ceramics and original pieces from jewelry to book and paper arts.

Each member is invited to submit one piece created 2024-2026 and with more than 350 members, this year’s group show will demonstrate the artistic diversity of Evanston Made’s membership.

New this year on exhibit will be Evanston authors, wearables and jewelry.

About Evanston Made

Started as an Artist Studio Tour in June 2014, by a group of volunteer art advocates, Evanston Made has grown into a membership organization with year round FREE events and hyper local online shopping portal - shopevanstonmade.org

In 2026, Evanston Made moved into the organization’s first headquarters at 822 Dempster St. on The Main Dempster Mile. Having a home base/beautiful space to share has been a long time coming, and we're thrilled to share why we think this is much more than an "art store".
