The second annual Chicago Exhibition Weekend (CXW 2024) features 50 participating galleries and creative spaces across the city from October 3-6, spotlighting Chicago’s vibrant cultural landscape and artistic spirit for locals and visitors alike. Building off the success of last year’s edition, which attracted 5,000 attendees over three days, CXW 2024 will expand its footprint with 50 participating galleries, demonstrating the vitality and diversity of the city’s growing commercial art scene. The weekend will bring together art collectors, enthusiasts, and local community members to engage with Chicago’s cultural community, helping artists and gallerists cultivate new collectors, broaden their audiences, and heighten global visibility for the local arts ecosystem.
