Core programming includes visual arts courses and workshops, college and career counseling for current students and alumni, and professional development and program evaluation support for its teaching artists. All Marwen programs take place at the Marwen Arts Campus, an eight-studio, three-gallery facility located in Chicago's River North neighborhood. Marwen strives to increase its student enrollment while sustaining and growing its current operations and leveraging the opportunities that its Arts Campus affords the organization and the city of Chicago, overall.
