As we continue to deepen and enhance our relationships within the community, BPI is excited to host this year’s event at a venue that sits at the intersection. Bridgeport Art Center is a wonderfully vibrant urban space located west of 35th Street and Halsted touching and serving Pilsen, Bronzeville, Chinatown, and Bridgeport.
During the evening, we will honor Michael Strautmanis, Executive Vice President, Civic Engagement for the Obama Foundation as this year’s Champion of the Public Interest recipient, Adam Gross will be recognized as the 2023 Alumni of the Year, and we will hear from Sharone R.
