Mark your calendars, boys and girls, Art on Track is taking over the Chicago 'L' train on August 7, 2010. If you're not in the area, I suggest you plan a quickie road trip. Transforming a full eight-car train into a moving art exhibit, it will create cultured art connoisseurs in the time it takes to circle The Loop.
Put together by a non-profit group SALVO, it is comprised of artists and designers who hope to bring more awareness to creativity and imagination. Take some time to view the images in the gallery above, it will surely compel you to check out Art on Track this summer.
