Chicago Humanities Festival

The complete program for this year's Chicago Humanities Festival was released yesterday and there's some great stuff in store. This year's theme is "Thinking Big" and the organizers certainly seem to be by tackling issues like cosmology, globalization, and the future of urban living. There will even be a few panels on the results of the presidential election that will take place just before the festival concludes.

The CHF technically begins in early October with a couple of big ticket fundraisers and gala events, but the good stuff really kicks off on October 11 and continues until November 16. Unless you're a CHF Member, you won't be able to buy tickets until September 15. But in the meantime you can browse the programs and set up an account on the CHF website to create an itinerary that will allow you to purchase multiple event tickets at once when the ticketing office opens to the general public.
