Archer Residents Collective (ARC)

Our Vision Statement

We envision an Archer Avenue shaped by the people who call it home - where decisions are made collectively, safety is real and practical, and development serves community needs over corporate interests. Archer for Everybody means an avenue that works for families, workers, elders, and small businesses alike - now and for generations to come.

New Community Space!

ARC is now operating out of La Chicanada, home of Holiday Studio - 4309 S Archer Ave, Chicago, IL, 60632. 12th ward community meetings are held every Saturday 4pm-6pm and will be hosted by South Side Rich. We are a free speech space, and everyone is welcome -neighbors, families, youth, and community members of all backgrounds.
