Are you a Chicagoland resident under 21?
Do you have something to say?
Are you excited to engage hundreds of museum visitors, other youth, and artists?
The theme for 21 Minus 2024 is Love and Liberation.
Love and liberation are two things that go hand in hand. One cannot exist without the other. Liberation is defined as the act of being freed from imprisonment, slavery, or some type of captivity. Love can be seen in many different forms: self, familial, platonic, romantic, community, cultural—the bounds are limitless.
How has love acted as a liberating force in your life? We invite you to consider the theme of “Love and Liberation” broadly and to interpret this prompt creatively in your submissions.

21Minus is a one-day showcase curated and produced by TCA with support from Lead Artists Olive Stefanski and Miguel Limon, and Ahmad Bracey, Manager of Youth and Schools. During 21 Minus museum admission is free for people ages 21 and under and their families.
If you have additional questions about the process or have questions about 21Minus in general, contact us at TCA@mcachicago.org.
