Signature Program Highlights

The Chicago Architecture Center offers engaging, insightful programs that encourage attendees to look at architecture in a new light and become design advocates in their own communities.

Vincent Scully Lecture Series

Inspired by the late beloved Yale University professor Vincent Scully, this lecture series makes built environment topics accessible and enjoyable for anyone—perfect for those with a passing interest in architecture but who possess no formal training.

Architect Talks

This recurring series invites architecture’s leading thinkers and practitioners to lecture at the CAC. Our audiences enjoy in-depth examination of each architect’s work and design process, with gestures toward new directions in the field.

What's Next

What’s Next is a series of invite-only forums and virtual events exploring how business and design leaders can unite to create great cities. It poses the questions: What kind of future do we want? What are we willing to do to get there?
