Paperish Mess Paperish Mess is a storefront and art gallery located in Chicago's Ukrainian Village neighborhood.

Paperish Mess is a retail space showcasing original artwork in a variety of mediums and styles, as well as handmade goods and wares by independent artists. The space also hosts featured art exhibits, installations, and community centered events. We've created a place where those coming through our front doors, whether they be a local resident, a creative mind, or an independent artist can intertwine with one another. We’re so psyched to bring this to our neighborhood and we hope that you’ll want to be a part of it with us too. If you are an artist (or have an artist friend!) interested in selling work or having an art exhibit, literary event, film screening, live music, etc. then please do get in touch– feel free to shoot us an email at [email protected]. If you are a visual artist please include a brief artist bio/description of your artwork or handmade items, a link to your website (if you have one) and/or a selection of JPEG images.
