About the Exhibition:
Once again we are happy to host the annual fundraising art exhibition for @swopchicago
Sex Workers Outreach Project Chicago is a grassroots organization dedicated to direct aid to and advocacy for anyone working in the sex industry.
SWOP Chicago members are current and former sex workers and sex trafficking survivors working together to promote the autonomy and rights of people in the industry. This art exhibition supports members who are creatives and artists.
"We address the issues that profoundly affect our work: access to supportive community and health care, violence at the hands of police, clients, and employers, and cultural stigma surrounding the sex industry. We employ a broad range of tactics and strategies, and work closely with other national and international sex workers’ rights organizations."
SWOP's projects have lasted for over a decade. As they aim to create more sustainability and better working conditions for their part time staff, 2024 will be focused on fundraising to support the future efforts of the organization.
SHOW RUNS: Mar 8th - Mar 30th
Gallery Hours: Wed - Sun / 12-6pm
