Headed to ALA Annual in Chicago? Please join us at the ACRL Arts/LES Forum and the ACRL Arts Annual Discussion Forum!

This program will explore architecture through the lenses of art, literature, and history with three engaging presentations: Discover the role the Auditorium Building and the Fine Arts Building played in hosting significant artists’ clubs; Go on a virtual tour of Chicago’s architecture and literature; and hear from the Director of The Archimedia Workshop, an architecture-focused not-for-profit media group.
