Elsewhere hosts 50+ new projects a year: from artworks to research, from events to extravaganzas, from residency works to collaborative upfits.

Urban Exchange Residency I | Chicago: Museum as Instrument

A month-long residency brings a group of Chicago-based sound artists to the museum to create a series of new sound works and performances at the museum that turn the building itself into a musical instrument. The residency is curated by Shannon Stratton, Chief Curator of The Museum of Arts and Design in New York and Founder and Executive Director Emeritus of Threewalls in Chicago, and Joe Jeffers, musician, producer and Director of 8550 Ohio (Chicago and Chesterhill, OH). Throughout June and early July, Elsewhere will host a series of public workshops and events with these artists culminating in a July First Friday public performance to Play the Museum.
