As the Public Studio Artist in Residence at the Chicago Cultural Center, artist Cheryl Pope is transforming the Garland Gallery into a creative space for public engagement. The artist engages visitors, especially youth, in her artistic practice using the boxing ring as a performance space for working out conflict in a non-violent way. Pope is committed to making the invisible visible through the creation of a large mural and various activities in the space throughout the summer, entitled “Just Yell: Levelling the Playing Field.
