The studios of the ARTISTS' OF THE EASTBANK are located in what was formerly the Speigel Catalog Warehouse. Built in 1911 along the South Branch of the Chicago River, the building is located in the venerable Bridgeport neighborhood a few minutes southwest of downtown Chicago. The ARTISTS' OF THE EASTBANK represent several artistic disciplines, which include but are not limited to: painting, sculpture, graphic design, jewelry design, blown glass, custom furniture design, pastel painting, ceramics, and fiber arts.
  
In the last 10 years the Bridgeport area has become a haven for visual artists and the "come to" place for the best and most innovative art in the city! Each month there are many opportunities to visit this area and enjoy new gallery exhibitions, performance art, and other art "happenings".
 
The Bridgeport area also enjoys a wonderful crossection of cultural and ethnic influences which offer wonderful shopping and dining experiences after a long day of "art walking".
