Chicago Architecture Foundation ( CAF ) has launched a major exhibition, "Between States: 50 Designers Transform Chicago's Neighborhoods," that will run through March 1 in CAF's Atrium Gallery, 224 S. Michigan Ave.
"Between States" is a showcase of 50 community-based design solutions to transform underappreciated and underperforming spaces in Chicago into rejuvenated spaces.
This exhibition is the latest in CAF's multi-year 50 Designers/50 Wards investigation, which explores how designers and residents might equally participate in identifying growth opportunities within all of Chicago's neighborhoods.
The exhibit is free and open to the public. The museum's daily hours are 9 a.m.-9 p.m. See Architecture.org . |
