HotHouse

HotHouse The Center for International Exhibition and Performance since 1987

While developing a permanent new site for its programs, HotHouse currently produces multi-disciplinary work and operates as an itinerant presenter of cultural and educational programs in a variety of venues throughout Chicago. The primary activities of the board of directors, staff, and volunteers are to advance strategies related to organizational development, to present high-caliber arts program

s that extend our collective resources into underserved communities and foster the international exchange of ideas and methods within the context of progressive social change praxis, and to undertake facility development work related to establishing a new home for HotHouse.
