Greektown Chicago is proud to present its Fanciful Fish outdoor sculpture exhibit through April 2021, with 21 artworks lining Halsted Street from Monroe to Van Buren Streets. An additional sculpture, titled Goldie Gives Gratitude, was moved this week to nearby Rush University Medical Center to thank its healthcare heroes and staff for their tireless efforts during the pandemic. Created by a diverse group of Chicago artists, the sculptures along Halsted Street celebrate Greek culture from mythological gods and seaside vistas to the Greek language. The project is sponsored by Greektown SSA #16, the neighborhood’s business improvement district, in partnership with the Chicago Greektown Educational Foundation.
