ince 2017, the Chicago Bears have been working with the Chicago Truborn gallery to select artists to paint murals celebrating the team and its fans.
The murals adorn walls around the city and the suburbs. This year’s additions to the Bears public art project were installed in Pilsen, Lincoln Park, Bucktown and Evanston.
The team tries to spread the murals around, says Fernando Arriola, the team’s vice president of fan and brand development.
Chicago Truborn owner Sara Dulkin says the aim is to try to represent Bears fandom.
This is part of an ongoing series of stories on public art in the city and suburbs.
