Chicago Artists' Coalition is a non-profit arts advocacy and career organization based in Chicago and open to artists and non-artists alike. Its stated mission is to educate the public as to the value of the visual arts, be an advocate for arts issues, provide professional and educational services, and improve the environment in which artists live and work. After the retirement in 2005 of the founding director, Arlene Rakoncay, the CAC is currently under the direction of Olga Stefan, who has increased the level of programming and outreach, and expanded the scope of the organization, creating collaborations and partnerships with various other institutions and organizations throughout the city.
