Serving a diverse body of students from nearly every zip code in Chicago, Marwen offers a broad range of studio courses including painting, drawing, photography, video, and ceramics, as well as college planning and career development programs. In 2003, more than 2,200 Chicago students, alumi, artists, and teachers were reached through our program, exhibitions, and special events."-- Inside back cover.
