Culture enriches our lives through everyday encounters and transformative artistic experiences. A vibrant culture ensures an innovative, compassionate, and inclusive society. Our cultural institutions provide a foundation for learning and exploration that helps shape our intellect and identity. Chicago’s cultural institutions were instrumental to our childhood and our gratitude is best expressed by continuing to support thought-provoking exhibitions and performances for future generations. We value organizations using art to explore and advance ideas and emerging issues while bringing overlooked artists to the forefront.
Flyway City: Architecture for a Flourishing Ecosystem, designed and co-curated by Studio Gang — the architecture and urban design practice founded in Chicago and led by world-renowned architect Jeanne Gang — aims to catalyze positive change on making cities safer and more welcoming for birds and diverse wildlife. The Chicago Architecture Center exhibition reveals how people can take scalable action to create healthier urban habitats and save birds from colliding with building glass – a problem that currently kills more than 1 billion birds each year in the United States. Flyway City invites everyone to take part in making Chicago a flourishing ecosystem for all. Photo by @bob.mov.
