Dennis Wise: A Logan Square Community Builder
Dennis brings people together. He’s an artist, a retired theater professor from Columbia College of Chicago, a contra dancer and a valued member of his community.

Dennis repurposes unused objects and transforms them into wonder-inspiring pieces of art.
