Bradley is home to a bright new spirit mural, thanks to a special collaboration between the university and Lettering Works. I couldn’t be more excited to bring a pop of color, illustration, and lettering to the wall outside of the bookstore.

This new Milwaukee collection has been a secret work in progress since the beginning of development of the Chicago Product Line we launched just over a month ago. Following suite with both the Peoria Collection and Chicago Collection, this line of Milwaukee-inspired products also aims to promote community pride.

Lettering Works participated in our first Chicago market on Thursday, August 22nd, fully stocked with our new Chicago collection. The Sauced Mini Night Market at Sleeping Village in Avondale provided an opportunity to connect with other local makers, meet new Chicagoans, and debut our hand-lettered products in the Chicago market.

Lettering Works officially launches 100 Days of Chicago - a new passion project in the style of popular personal project 100 Days of Peoria. 100 unique hand-lettered illustrations by Chelsie Tamms will be shared on Instagram and Facebook from August 22nd-November 29th.

Stickers are undoubtedly a Lettering Works favorite. After two months of being in Chicago, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that we’ve got a full line-up of Chicago-inspired stickers.

Steph stole the show at Sensory Ignite (a new addition to Ignite Peoria) with her well-thought out setup and beautiful collection of original artwork. She displayed her entire collection of stickers for sale alongside original paintings and handmade jewelry.

The Prairie Center of the Arts in Peoria’s Warehouse District opened the gallery’s doors the evening of Saturday, August 10th for the annual Alumni Show Opening Reception. The show features the work of 72 artists who have gone through the artist residency program at the Prairie Center, including Chelsie Tamms’ Chicago Style Postcards.
