Ugly Step Sister Art Gallery, founded in 2008 by Tanya Tucci, was dedicated to showcasing emerging and established visual artists in an approachable setting, with a focus on affordable contemporary art from local Chicago talents. After relocating to a permanent space in the vibrant Pilsen East Arts District in 2012, the gallery became the city's first wind-powered green gallery, consistently featuring new exhibitions every month.

The gallery hosted a variety of exhibitions from 2012 to 2013, highlighting artists such as Lauren Zens and Amanda Joy Calobrisi, who explored themes ranging from abstract storytelling to the interplay between the real and imagined. While the gallery is no longer operational, it left a lasting impact on the local arts scene through its commitment to supporting new voices in the art community.
