Intuit is currently closed for renovation and will celebrate its reopening April 24-27, 2025. Intuit champions the diverse voices of self-taught art, welcoming both new and familiar audiences.&nbsp; Founded in 1991, Intuit presents the work of self-taught artists, also known as outsider art—artists who worked outside the mainstream and may have faced societal, economic or geographic barriers to a traditional academic path of art making. The creative instinct is universal, and the arts must embrace, represent and be accessible to all. &nbsp; Intuit offers world-class exhibitions; a collection of nearly 1,400 artworks; the Henry Darger Room; resources for genre specific education and scholarship; and art education programs for people of all interest levels and backgrounds. &nbsp; Thanks to Intuit friends and the City of Chicago, the museum raised $7 million to renovate its facility. Intuit looks forward to welcoming you back when the museum reopens.

For the last Art After Work of 2022, Chicago-based self-taught artist Roman Villarreal will facilitate a workshop inspired by his exhibition South Chicago Legacies. In the in-person workshop, participants will sculpt figures from bars of soap using found objects and carving tools.<a href="https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001Vrg8tiBAl76TDsToBzx71o-XFbDfPcEer6awQTcMqNKSSfMim65eHg6bueJZ5J2z9GAkDNAhthWEr1lPdWvKC7hs7DC4uwh_M6_fYLDnRgH41vmDU5rnLA-TTYYZK0c8OmASMQwrBPkI3Qdbi162F1B1pz0HFo0hW5Dfq5PTd1XvadKUKWsOamYw6-q3MIO_YERKxgr02aQdvbbT3Z0dGnB_IpmsiOGD&amp;c=fCovDO11LaoZkceSexgR-995vedKx_Xy7wSRDqUrwLppGzZHAiApuA==&amp;ch=QnFwfrxn1Eya6a3Y5wH4xve8YB7Q-aFoxBe3na4DTts8CXZ_mZgMEQ==">REGISTER</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;
