OHC is just one of many CAF programs that inspire people to discover why design matters. Today, when you visit CAF at 224 S. Michigan Ave., you’ll find visitors embarking on tours, camps for children, lectures for adults and field trip groups gathered around our 3D model of Chicago. In summer 2018, CAF will open the Chicago Architecture Center at 111 E. Wacker Dr. This new location is situated above the dock for the Chicago Architecture Foundation River Cruise aboard Chicago’s First Lady Cruises—the city’s top-ranked tour. At the Center, CAF will grow its programs and education initiatives and tell new stories about Chicago, our dynamic neighborhoods and how the city invented the skyscraper. Through interactive exhibits, we will show Chicagoans and visitors how we can build the cities of tomorrow.
