Architects' Roundtable: Designing Sukkahs to Amplify Civic Life

  • James Stone Freedom Square 3615 West Douglas Boulevard Chicago (map)

Meet our architectural design/build contributors and learn more about their participatory design process co-creating sukkahs alongside their community organization partners. The panel discussion will be moderated by Nekita Thomas, a designer, educator at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and researcher dedicated to using design as a tool for social impact. Afterwards, extend your architectural experience of North Lawndale by participating in one of the building or garden tours that are part of Open House Chicago, the Chicago Architecture Center’s free annual event that provides behind-the-scenes access to architecturally, historically, and culturally significant sites. Stone Temple Baptist Church is one of the Open House Chicago sites, and will hold guided tours of the building (originally the First Roumanian Congregation synagogue) every half hour from 1:00–5:00 p.m.
