The City of Chicago and the Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events (DCASE) welcome new and returning visual art exhibitions, music performances, film programming, and more this spring throughout the Chicago Cultural Center (78 E Washington St). Fondly referred to as “The People’s Palace,” the Center attracts locals and visitors year-round with its breathtaking architecture, tours, and free arts programming. Visit ChicagoCulturalCenter.org and follow on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for the latest events and updates. The popular “Under the Dome” concert series returns, featuring dynamic performances by multi-instrumentalist NNAMDÏ and Midwest Americana artist Jodi under the stunning Preston Bradley Hall Tiffany dome. The free show takes place on Thursday, April 27 at 6:30pm (doors open at 5:30pm). Headliner NNAMDÏ is fresh off the release of his latest album Please Have a Seat, which serves as a request to sit down, be present, and take in a moment. RSVPs are recommended.
