This is our preferred architecture tour as it is run by the Chicago Architecture Center and led by trained docents. On Friday, you might be able to catch a glimpse of the Air & Water show practice.
Kate's mom's favorite place to go! She loves ferris wheels!
Where Blake solidified his Chicago friendships. Great beach and easily accessible from downtown!
Take the water taxi to Chinatown!
Favorite exhibits: Thorne Miniature Rooms; Chagall Windows; Special exhibit - Raqib Shaw; Modern Art (Picasso, Dali, Matisse); Contemporary Art (Andy Warhol); Arts of the Americas (Edward Hopper, Georgia O'Keefe); Paintings and Sculptures of Europe (Van Gogh, Monet, Renoir, Degas, Gauguin, Cezanne)
If you love history or architecture, Kate highly recommends the 1-hour Frank Lloyd Wright Tour of The Rookery building in the Loop.
