Applicants must be between the ages of 18 and 30 and live or reside within 150 miles of the Chicago Loop.
If an applicant does not currently reside within the Chicago area, they must have spent 4-6 consecutive formative years within 150 miles of the Chicago Loop and consider themselves a Chicago artist.
