Chicago's Fine Arts Building with Author Keir Graff

Author Keir Graff will discuss his recently published book Chicago's Fine Arts Building: Music, Magic, and Murder , taking audience members behind the scenes of the cultural hub. Initially conceived as a space for artists’ studios, a home for the city’s working artists, the building was an immediate success, but the Great Depression brought a long, slow decline to the building. Keir will discuss his writing process and sell copies of the book at the end of the program.

Please note: Our Read & Run Program will be occurring prior to this program! Run and discuss the book, then hear from the author himself!
