About Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art
The Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art (UIMA) is a small, focused gallery in Chicago dedicated to Ukrainian and American contemporary art. Located at 2320 W Chicago Ave, the venue features a main gallery around 2100 square feet with two side galleries housing a permanent collection. Admission is donation-based with a suggested donation of the best available price, and hours run Wednesday through Sunday from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. As a gallery space rather than a performance venue, UIMA provides an intimate setting to view rotating exhibitions and special events.
Whether you’re exploring solo or planning a visit with friends, we’ve got you covered with practical details, nearby lodging, dining options, and easy transit tips to get you here.
Security, accessibility, and convenience matter for gallery visits. UIMA does not publish a seating chart since it is not a dedicated performance hall, but guests can enjoy the thoughtful layout of the main and side galleries. Parking is available nearby via street and public parking options, with convenient access by CTA buses and nearby Blue Line stops (Division/Milwaukee area, Division Station) for a hassle-free commute. Nearby lodging includes The Robey (2018 W North Ave) and The Emily Hotel (311 N Morgan St). For visitors seeking dining or coffee before or after a visit, we highlight nearby options that offer reliable service for a comfortable Chicago experience. When events are announced, we’ll provide clear, up-to-date details so you can secure your seats or spots for performances and exhibitions hosted by UIMA. Date to be announced or rescheduled events will be clearly marked on the event page.
