We’re a group of self-employed creatives who started Minhwa to create a space where Chicago’s artists can connect, collaborate, and share their stories. Our goal is to foster open conversations -- about experiences, advice, and even regrets -- among artists, patrons, and the broader community.

Chicago is brimming with talent and potential, and we believe that nurturing its creative culture is key to shaping a vibrant future. Minhwa is our contribution to building a richer, more inclusive cultural landscape for everyone who calls this city home.

Unfortunately, we’re not nepo babies. Everything we do relies on the belief and generosity of our community. By supporting us, you’re not only helping us bring more grassroots initiatives to life -- you’re investing more into Chicago’s creative future. Together, let’s ensure that art and culture remain essential to the city’s identity.
