Please join us for the opening reception of our latest exhibition: New Horizon: Architecture from Ireland.

New Horizon represents an international partnership between ChiDM and Irish Design 2015. The exhibition features a powerful site-specific installation that pays homage to Chicago’s architectural legacy while simultaneously showcasing the work of three dynamic Dublin-based architecture firms: A2, GKMP, and Ryan Kennihan Architects.

This event is free and open to the public.
