Facts About Acme Artists Community:

Acme Artists is a limited equity development providing home ownership to artists and their families. Acme provides office space to non-profit organizations including Chicago Community TV Network, NNWAC and the Chicago Mutual Housing Network. A project of the Near NorthWest Arts Council (NNWAC), Acme is the first work/live artists community in Chicago designed, managed and owned by its members. Located at 2418 West Bloomingdale in Humboldt Park, the project is unique because it has been developed through grassroots participation to achieve affordable, sustainable, energy efficient space well suited to the arts.
