Guichard Gallery Welcomed as Revitalization Anchor for Bronzeville
The opening of Gallery Guichard in Chicago's Bronzeville neighborhood last Friday with an exhibition titled, Genesis New Beginnings: The Journey Continues on 47th Street, will hopefully surge revitalization in the historic area, according to gallery attendees and owners Andre and Frances Guichard. They're all optimistic that the new gallery will serve as an economic anchor that will help restore Bronzeville back to what it once was - a great place to, live, shop, and dine all while admiring a community filled with rich African American culture.
