Original Art.
Homemade Food.
A Neighborhood Tradition.

Blue Dot Art Gallery is the newest creative space by Evanston artist and longtime community favorite Aydin Dincer. Located across the street from the former Prairie Joe's, the gallery is a place where art and food continue to bring people together.

Browse a vibrant collection of Aydin's original oil paintings—from expressive landscapes and colorful city scenes to abstract works and portraits. Every piece is an original, offering visitors the opportunity to take home artwork created by one of Evanston's most recognizable artists. Aydin has spent decades blending painting, cooking, and community into a uniquely personal experience.

While you're here, pick up some of the homemade favorites that made Prairie Joe's a local institution. Fresh soups, chilled gazpacho, and other Prairie Joe's staples are available to go, with seasonal offerings changing regularly.

Planning ahead? You can also preorder food for convenient pickup.
