Campaign to name Park #567 in honor of muralist Don't Fret
Don't Fret was a Wicker Park local who championed the underdog through his artwork. His work can be seen throughout the neighborhood. Sadly, Don't Fret passed away last year at just 36. A campaign to name a small, unnamed park after him has been created.
