A.Okay Loves CTA: Chicago Train Art 2009

It’s back! “A.Okay Loves CTA” returns for its 2nd annual locomotive art happening. Join a fresh plethora of artists in celebrating our favorite moving canvas! This year’s show takes a new spin on the urban custom toy trend as exhibiting artists expand beyond one specific train model. Dozens of your favorite urban, graphic and illustrative artists from Chicago and beyond raid hobby shops, toy stores and junkyards to bring us trains of all shapes and sizes they have painted, sculpted or defiled.
