About this Event

Welcome Pre-Party, hosted by Chicago Architecture Biennial

Our partners at CAB invite you to start the weekend with a pre-party at Rebuild Foundation's Stony Island Arts Bank. The space of this former savings and loan was restored by artist Theaster Gates and reopened in 2015 as a hybrid gallery, library, media archive, and community center aimed at preserving Black culture and artistic expression. This fall, it serves as a site of the Chicago Architecture Biennial, hosting five installations by architects and designers from around the world.

Please note:

The pre-party is free to attend and is only a 5 minute drive/15 minute walk from the St. Laurence Elementary School, where the Deem Symposium programming will begin at 7PM.
