Earlier this month, residents got the opportunity to check out the annual Bronzeville Art Walk.
It was a day where attendees could view and purchase art and vendor goods, enjoy live entertainment, participate in interactive demonstrations and support local businesses.
The event was part of Bronzeville Week 2024, which celebrated arts, culture and commerce in the Bronzeville neighborhood.
