Millennium Park is a gorgeous, a state-of-the-art collection of architecture, landscape design and art that provide the backdrop for hundreds of free cultural programs including concerts, exhibitions, tours, and family activities An inspiring interaction between sculpture, architecture and nature, and an iconic feature of the Chicago landscape. Please RSVP to info@duncansymposium.com . We do need to know numbers!

Meet-up at Palmer House Hilton at 6pm

Join us at the historic Palmer House lobby for a casual kick off to the symposium. Built over 140 years ago, The Palmer House would have surely been a place Isadora might have visited during her brief time in Chicago. It’s also the site where the brownie was invented! We’ll meet in the lovely art deco lobby for tea and brownies, drinks and some pre-symposium conversation. Come say hi to friends!

Palmer House Lobby: 17 E. Monroe Street, Chicago

You’re welcome to join for one or both! We think these will be a lovely, relaxed way to connect with other attendees before the Symposium kicks off on Thursday morning.
