Vote for Bronzeville Art District USA Today's Best Arts District
Just 10 minutes from downtown on Chicago's South Side is the historic Bronzeville Art District, once known as the city's "Black Metropolis." This art district has a rich cultural legacy — the source of Muddy Waters' blues and Gwendolyn Brooks' poetry — with art galleries housed in restored greystones and new murals that tell stories alongside historic bronze markers. Third Fridays bring extra energy to the area, as galleries stay open late, and trolley tours of the district are a great way to get to know more of the area.
