Mission
Founded in 2022 by Chicago artist RELLO, Cherry Mountain Arts has grown from a traditional gallery space into a premier destination where fine art, collectibles, streetwear, and design intersect. More than an art space, CMA is a curated experience built around the belief that collecting should feel accessible, meaningful, and personal. Whether it's a painting, a collectible figure, or an artist-designed tee, every piece is chosen to feel just as at home on a bookshelf as it does in a frame.
Art is for everyone. It lives through the imaginations of the people. Without them, there is no art.
Our Mission
Cherry Mountain Arts exists to close the gap between artists and the communities that need them. As a nonprofit art organization rooted in Chicago, we are committed to bringing art from across the world to Chicago and carrying the art of Chicago across the world.
We believe art has no bounds. It doesn't belong only in galleries or behind glass. It belongs in everyday spaces, neighborhoods, and hands. We want collectors of every level, especially those who never thought collecting was for them, to be able to take home something that resonates in the medium that works for them. That's why we emphasize collaborating with artists for limited edition series from all mediums including consumer goods.
Our goal is simple: connect artists with real people. No gatekeeping, no barriers. Just community, culture, and the unifying power of art.
