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.

Loved the building. It was a bit difficult to keep the group together. Frustrating for people who arrived early as instructed and then had to wait for the latecomers.

Ronnie really knows this building! He gave an amazing tour! A lot of stairs and light give this building a certain flair. Everyone from Frank Loyd Wright to Norman Rockwell worked in this building! Same architecture as Pullman, Illinois.

I learned about so many amazing artists, all with their own fascinating histories, who were tenants in the Fine Arts Building. Fascinating to see all of the hand done work on everything from plaster/marble walls to Ustinov made floor tiles. Ronnie is a delight and so passionate about all of the details in this building.
