The ZOE project is an international event in Chicago and Haiti in which artists, musicians and dancers collectively work on a series of exhibitions and a feature documentary that examines the origins of the zombie and its evolution into a modern day pop culture icon. The ZOE project attempts to understand the symbolism, facts and the cultural significance of zombies. The ZOE project is, in part, supported by a generous grant from The Chicago Community Trust.
This program is partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.
