Join Gallery 400, the Jane Addams-Hull House, and the UIC Disability Cultural Center (DCC) for a virtual tour of Contemporary Ex-Votos: Devotion Beyond Medium.

Led by curator Dr. Emmanuel Ortega and DCC Director Margaret Fink, the tour explores ex-votos, a type of small devotional painting created as a testament of gratitude. Exhibited across Gallery 400 and the Jane Addams-Hull House Museum, Contemporary Ex-Votos combines 19th- and 20th-century ex-votos with the work of contemporary Latinx artists considering devotion and resilience. 

ACCESS INFORMATION: This program is free and open to the public. CART (live captions) and ASL will be available on Zoom. Descriptions of each object will be integrated into the tour. For questions or other access arrangements, please email gallery400engagement@gmail.com. Interested in catching the exhibit in person?
