SoNa Chicago Contemporary Art is a relatively new gallery located on the near north side of Chicago. The gallery opened in Spring 2023 and features paintings, ceramics, photography, textiles, sculpture, and mixed media. The gallery also hosts occasional music, poetry, literature, and theater events. We feature primarily Chicago artists because we think there is an abundance of amazing talent in this city that deserves to be featured on a national and international scale. Our name derives from "South of North Avenue" (SoNa) in Chicago. The gallery is located at 1527 N. Ashland Avenue, just South of North Avenue and a few blocks east of the iconic intersection of Damen, Milwaukee, and North Avenue. The name signals our appreciation for being rooted in a place rich in history, architecture, and culture. Although we will put a spotlight on Chicago artists, we want the dialogue between artists in the gallery to be global. We view our space as a venue for conversation, community, and a celebration of the arts.
