The world lost a beautiful, creative, compassionate, kind soul. We lost our collaborator, advisor, Board Member, and my dear friend. Sharon was a devoted daughter and passionate defender of her father’s Art and legacy. I promised Sharon that we would keep pushing EPAC forward to be a globally recognized institution with the beating heart of Ed, Sharon, and Chicago🖤

With profound sadness and love, Vesna K. Stelcer

Thank you to all that attended our return of Paschke in the Park! The rain didn't stop us from having a great day.
We're so appreciative of Dr. Charles Smith for sharing his artwork with The Chicago Art Center for the brand-new Northside Cultural District sculpture garden.
We are honored to have his work in the Jefferson Park neighborhood and could not have made this possible without support from our community and local elected officials.
If you were unable to make it to Sunday’s ribbon cutting, please stop by the garden and see his work, located at 5374 W. Lawrence.

06/11/2023

Today is the day! Please join us from 12-2 pm for the return of Paschke in the Park. Due to weather, art activities will be held inside the Jefferson Park field house.
The new sculpture garden ribbon cutting ceremony will still take place at 1 pm at 5374 W. Lawrence.

See you soon!
