Nancy in the News: Crain’s Chicago Business

Have you read the news? Crain’s Chicago Business and their reporter Anne Moore saw something interesting in the chalk-art business that Nancy has created at Nancy Pochis Bank Art Studio. We are thrilled to receive coverage from such an esteemed publication, though it is just as exciting that we are being recognized for doing what we love. “I’m so lucky to be following my passion, turning it into a business, and getting recognized for it,” says Nancy.

Visit Crain’s website and register for free to read the article, creatively titled “Chalk it up to Maurice Sendak”.

Chicago Public Artwork Goes International

In the summer of 2007, “Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” was launched in Chicago. Nancy Pochis Bank was among an international group of artists selected by the jury to design and create a globe to be displayed in the lakefront exhibit.

Since the start of the "Cool Globes" project, Nancy has created four 5’ globes that have been exhibited across the United States and internationally.

“Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” is a non-profit organization established to raise awareness of climate change and inspire individuals and community leaders to embrace solutions. The public art exhibit features larger-than-life globes, each designed to depict a solution to global warming.
