Open House Chicago
Oct 15, 2015
We’ll be open this weekend, October 17-18, 2015, for Open House Chicago (OHC), the city’s annual architecture festival organized by the Chicago Architecture Foundation.
Since 1963 the Graham Foundation has been located in the Madlener House, a turn-of-the-century, Prairie-style mansion designed by architect Richard E. Schmidt and designer Hugh M. G. Garden. Restored in 1963 to become the Graham’s headquarters, the Madlener House features three floors of exhibition space, original art glass windows, and a courtyard garden that showcases our significant collection of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century architectural fragments.
This Saturday and Sunday, come tour the Madlener House and visit our current exhibition Barbara Kasten: Stages, which includes a new, site-specific video installation by Barbara Kasten produced specifically in response to the architecture of the Madlener House.
Saturday, October 17, 11am-5pm
Sunday, October 18, 12pm-4pm
Admission to all Open House Chicago sites is free. For more information, visit: http://openhousechicago.org/.
