Love love loved this building (both inside and out) and the exhibits/art. Check out the Mecca Flat Bluesexhibit on the beautiful fourth floor through May 25.
This marvelous Neoclassical palazzo was the city's 1st library in 1897. Come for the Tiffany glass dome, stay for the free public programs. – Green Guide Editor
How many great things can I say about this place. Beauty, culture, art...and bathrooms and places to charge a cell phone...both premiums in this downtown area!!! Be sure to see the Tiffany Dome!!!
There is a free guided tour of the building that is definitely worth doing! It lasts about one hour and you learn a lot about the history of the building.
The exhibits are nothing to boast of, buy everything around them is pretty cool. The classic reading room w/ WiFi & outlets, the Tiffany dome, the Grand Army of the Republic hall, etc. Awesome.
As a local Chicagoan, this is my absolute favorite building in the entire city. I take everyone here and I wander around it whenever I have time. Incredible!
Watch your step on the north stairs off of lobby in center of the building... there isn't much contrast and what you think is the last step might not be.. Otherwise an awesome place to viewart.
I LOVE this place for photography. Though, since the changeover, I miss the friendly Visitor Center staff and comfortable feel on the First Level. Inviting for foreigners.
Drop in on a Sunday afternoon, usually there is a free musicalperformance and there's always great exhibits to explore. It's one of the great FREE go-to spots in Chicago!
The Small Ordinary Shop has many beautiful handmade items from local artisans. Clothing, candles, bags, prints, and jewelry -- I wish I could just buy it all.
The architectural masterpiece, featuring a Carrara marble lobby and large windows, opened in 1897 and hosts more than 700 free exhibits, screenings, performances, and lectures every year.
Completed in 1897 it was dedicated as the city's original Chicago Public Library. This monument was inspired by the neo-classical style of the World's Columbian Exposition held in Chicago in 1893.
On fourth floor. Morbid Curiosity It's free. Use your cell phone for a free audio tour. Art in real form!!! I like this galley better than the sex exhibit on Las Ramblas Barcelona. Go figure
There are so many artexhibits to check out in this building, and the architecture is beautiful. Make sure you check out the stained glass ceiling. It's free, so don't be shy.
Definitely worth a stop on Monday (free day)- the exhibits and dioramas are amazing! I did pick up some interesting history adaptations that my Texas textbooks must have "left out." Great place!
I love going here for free concerts, events, and artexhibits. Also, the building itself is well worth the experience, complete with beautiful mosaic-tile ceilings.
This landmark building houses free public events, such as lectures, films, music and danceevents. They have the world’s largest stained glassTiffany dome. 続きを見る
Chicago's first library and home to the world's largest Tiffany-glass dome ceiling. It was designed in the neo-classical style popularized by the 1893 World's Fair.
The Chicago Cultural Center was the backdrop for several scenes from The Untouchables, including a performance of an opera in Preston Bradley Hall that moves Al Capone (Robert de Niro) to tears.
Most concerts, shows, exhibits and dance programs are free! Step inside and check the schedule (and don’t forget to look up – there are two gorgeous stained glass domes).Powered by ParentsConnect.co 続きを見る
