HERE, TO STAY During this time of recovery, reimagining and resurgence, the Chicago Architecture Center’s work has never been so essential. With 55 years of experience, the CAC is North America’s largest architecture center, uniquely positioned to help bridge the gap in understanding between design professionals and the public; between the architecture and the people who inhabit these spaces. Recognizing the role the CAC can and should play in the recovery of our great city, our Board of Trustees and staff leadership set out in 2021 to develop a new and visionary strategic plan—one that addresses the CAC’s internal needs while taking large steps toward greater reach, a more inclusive and equitable focus, a digital transformation and long-term sustainability.
