Open House: Mana Contemporary Chicago
Mana Contemporary and Monira Foundation are thrilled to invite you to the Fall Open House Chicago!
Join us in celebrating our landmark building as part of Open House Chicago, explore Mana Contemporary artist studios, Monira Foundation artist-in-residence, and visit our exhibitions and artists’ talks in relation to architecture.
Every October, the Chicago Architecture Center hosts Open House Chicago—a free public festival that offers self-guided history and architecture trails throughout the city, along with talks, programming, and behind-the-scenes access to architecturally, historically, and culturally significant sites. The industrial architecture of Mana Contemporary is a key reason it stands out as a popular site during Open House Chicago.

11AM Assaf Evron, artist talk
12PM Candida Alvarez conversation
1PM Miao Wang: Conditions are never singular but multifaceted
