IT ALL STARTED WHEN…
Being a female Latinx artist, DragonFLY was founded with a deep commitment to serve under-resourced and under-invested communities. Even though Chicago is often seen as an artistic beacon there are several communities lacking quality resources, opportunities and art experiences. We are committed to offer several services and programs even though we are small.
