He also worked with the Lighthouse Organization of Chicago, which promotes the inclusiveness of disabled people in all aspects of life. There are 51 Lighthouses temporarily displayed on Michigan Avenue. The Lighthouse CJ created is located by the School of the Art Institute. He has collaborated with INDIEWALLS of New York for two fantastic live corporate painting art projects in Chicago and with UnCubed of New York also painting in Chicago for two separate but similar live painting events.

Fulton Market Kitchen has also been gracious to host CJ live painting for a few single night events and one week long painting residency. CJ was awarded a purchase prize from the Art in Architecture program for the Math & Science Academy. His most notable piece of public art, funded by the Mayors office & the City of Chicago, is a 500 square foot original artwork he conceived and created for the new Chinatown Library in Chicago. That project granted him inclusion in the historic art collection owned by the city with all the famous artists that have done major art pieces for the city of Chicago. His latest mural is a 1680 square foot installation piece for the Islamic Food & Nutrition Council of America in Chicago. He has created a mural for the Lincoln Square community of Chicago as well.
