Author Series: A Conversation with Jeanne Gang
Donors Forum is pleased to present the second event in its Author Series, a new opportunity for connecting grantmakers, nonprofits, advisors with each other and with national experts. Join us from 5 - 5:30 pm for a networking and hors d'oeuvre reception; following the presentation, there will be time for questions.
Renowned architect and recently named MacArthur Fellow Jeanne Gang thinks big. Having already brought award-winning buildings -- such as the "Aqua" skyscraper -- to Chicago, she is now thinking about how to redesign a central element of the city itself: the Chicago River.
Ms. Gang's new book, Reverse Effect: Renewing Chicago's Waterway, encourages architects, designers, policymakers, advocates, and community members to re-imagine and reshape the future of the Chicago River. In this conversation, Ms. Gang will discuss her book and her vision for the future of the Chicago waterway, as well as some of her other work on "green" and sustainable design.
