Fine Arts Building
Go on a captivating journey through Chicago's Fine Arts Building, a hidden gem of 10 enchanting floors filled with an array of creative spirits. You'll be immersed in a world where painters, photographers, music instructors, architects, lawyers, stringed instrument makers, and booksellers, come together to craft their dreams.
We'll wander through a mesmerizing labyrinth of hallways that have been remarkably unchanged since 1898. It's a time travel experience as the rich history and captivating stories behind this artist's haven are unraveled. Discover how it came to life, due to the former Studebaker Brothers Carriage Company Showroom's relocation back in 1896.
While other Chicago landmarks may showcase more perfectly restored facades, the F.A.B. stands apart, aging like a fine wine, preserving the essence of creativity itself. Join us in celebrating the timeless spirit and enduring passion of Solon Spencer Beman, the architect who breathed life into this stunning masterpiece.
