Free event for Friends of Downtown 2010 and 2011 members; $20.00 members.For nearly twenty years now, Blair Kamin of the Chicago Tribune has explored how architecture captures our imagination and engages our deepest emotions. A winner of the Pulitzer Prize for criticism and writer of the widely read Cityscapes blog, Kamin treats his subjects not only as works of art but also as symbols of the cultural and political forces that inspire them.
As the keynote speaker at the Friends of Downtown annual meeting, Blair will talk about his new book, Terror and Wonder, and how its lessons relate to Downtown Chicago.
