We Outside: Murals Made with Dorian Sylvain

Workshop Community Art Exhibition

What’s Happening?

The Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts is proud to present We Outside: Murals Made with Dorian Sylvain. The exhibition will be on view in Café Logan, 915 E 60th, from August - October, 2024.

These mural pieces were created with community members in workshops led by award-winning muralist Dorian Sylvain as part of the Logan Center for the Arts’ 2024 Summer Series We Outside.

We Outside offered an array of workshops, exhibitions, & live performances designed to engage and inspire participants of all ages. With events at the Logan Center and a performance at Millennium Park, the series provided a vibrant cultural immersion filled with learning, entertainment, and community connection for everyone.

Dorian Sylvain is a painter whose color and texture explore ornamentation, pattern, and design as identifiers of cultural and historical foundations. She is a studio painter and muralist, as well as an art educator, curator, and cultural organizer. Collaborating with young people and communities to elevate neighborhood aesthetics and foster a shared understanding is at the core of her practice. Much of her public work addresses issues of beautification with color palettes and patterns found throughout the African diaspora.
