CHICAGO — An upcoming exhibit will pair street art with labels for WAT-AAH! bottles.
The bottled water brand exhibit will feature work from street artists POSE and Hebru Brantley among others. The exhibit is open 11 a.m.-7 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Moonlight Studios Gallery, 1446 W. Kinzie St.
WAT-AAH! — which wants to "fight childhood obesity and promote healthy hydration among kids and teens," according to a news release — is hosting the exhibit as part of its Taking Back the Streets traveling art campaign.
The campaign is meant to "celebrate the power of street art to convey a positive message reminding kids and teens that choosing to drink water is one of the best, easiest and coolest decisions they can make each and every day."
POSE and five art students selected by the University of Chicago's Arts Incubator Design Apprenticeship Program also created a 75-foot-by-15-foot WAT-AAH! mural at Lake Street and Racine Avenue earlier this month.
