CAF Spring/Summer Calendar Released

The Chicago Architecture Foundation is making sure no one is able to use "there's nothing to do" as a reason for staying in. The CAF has just announced their spring and early summer events, tours and programs. Events headlining this year are, appropriately enough, centered around the Burnham Plan Centennial. The Chicago Model City exhibition will display a highly detailed model of Chicago at the foundation's gallery. Coupled with the model of the city Burnham designed are exhibits that focus on the character behind the plan. With the popularity of The Devil in the White City, readers have become more familiarly with this seemingly mythical character. B Like Burnham will feed this curiosity and attempt to answer the question "Who is Daniel H. Burnham?" Both exhibits open on June 11.

In addition to an abundance of walking tours, lectures and daily river cruises (starting tomorrow), the CAF is offering evening boat cruises every Thursday, starting in June.
