Throughout his years of chemical dependency, his time in the spotlight as a cast member of MTV's "Real World Chicago," his work as a Ford Agency model, his speaking engagements across the country, his life as an openly gay man, and the last 12 years in sobriety, a unique personal history has always and continues to inform Christopher Beckman's work as an artist. In this free workshop, open to everyone regardless of their art background, Beckman will take you on a visual journey through his photography, painting, and sculpture that illustrate his life and gives visual reference to many of the points raised in his recent book. There will be ample time for questions and answers, with an informal reception to follow.
