Appearing at The Frunchroom this month is Won Kim: a multi-disciplinary artist helming a restaurant, painting murals, and DJing whenever he can.
Won grew up in the north side of the city but is now a proud resident of Beverly. His restaurant Kimski in the Bridgeport neighborhood is attached to another icon Maria’s Packaged Goods and Community Bar. It has been open for seven years and has been home to many pop-ups, startups, and hosted many community activations.
Won also paints murals and takes on commissions which have included clients such as Nike, Goose Island, VW, Alinea Group, Red Bull, and a slew of local Chicagoland restaurants. He DJs under the name Genghiswon, has held down music residencies at some of your favorite bars, and continues to play out to this day. He is always tired and ready to take on the next project.
See Won at The Frunchroom this Thursday at 730pm at the Beverly Arts Center (111th St and Western Ave). Brought to you by the Beverly Area Arts Alliance. A $5 donation is requested at the door, which benefits the Alliance and the BAC.
