WEST TOWN GALLERY WALK

In conjunction with the 2026 Filter Photo Festival, join us for a casual gallery walk in Chicago’s West Town Gallery District. Meet us at District Brew Yards for a bit of socializing before we head out together to see the exhibitions on view at moniquemeloche, Mariane Ibrahim Gallery,  Volume Gallery, and SECRIST | BEACH. End your tour at Filter Space, where we’ll be celebrating the opening of three exhibitions: Light Slip: Archive, Abstraction, and Phenomena by Sonja Thomsen and Aaron R. Turner; Wind and Other Dangers by Sasha Arutyunova; and On the Shelf 2026.
