Chicago Center for Arts & Technology

Chicago Center for Arts & Technology Rooted in the connection between Art + Technology, we strive to serve our community through accessibility, inclusivity, and creativity.

We strive to make an impact in our neighboring communities—North Lawndale, Little Village, and Pilsen—to help our students change the future. An important part of CHICAT’s educational commitment is to reach and teach individuals who experience barriers to academic achievement and/or sustained employment. We believe that we all deserve access to the resources necessary to provide a higher quality of life with socioeconomic stability, interpersonal and professional development and gainful employment.
