Minhwa is a Chicago-based artist-run collective dedicated to bridging gaps and deepening connections between creatives, patrons, and the city. We cultivate inclusive social spaces to present unfiltered, engaging conversations that empower artists of all disciplines to connect with one another and their audiences -- breaking free from traditional structures and expectations. By challenging creative norms, we aim to make the arts more accessible and contribute to the vibrancy of Chicago’s cultural landscape.
Embracing all creative mediums -- from visual arts and design to food, music, and more -- we feature a rotating lineup of notable creatives in each episode. These artists generously share their honest perspectives and personal experiences, offering audiences an intimate look into their creative journeys. Our in-person, community-driven events are designed to spark inspiration, fulfillment, and genuine connection for everyone in attendance. In a time of growing disconnection and loneliness, these shared moments feel more vital than ever.
