Union Street Gallery is located at 1527 Otto Blvd in Chicago Heights. The three-story historic landmark building now houses fifteen artist studios and two floors of gallery space. The concept of being a collaborative is still an integral part of Union Street Gallery. However, much of the artists’ hard work running USG has been passed on to the board, staff, and volunteers, allowing the artists to return to making the art that has drawn around 3000 people to the gallery per year.
