Chicago is home to one of the largest collections of Tiffany glass in the country. Chicago Architecture Center docent Susan Jacobson leads this remotely accessible program that examines some the most magnificent art-glass and mosaic installations in the city crafted by Louis Comfort Tiffany. Beginning with his exhibit at the 1893 World’s Fair, Tiffany left indelibly colorful marks on Chicago’s architecture. Learn about the design, techniques and craftspeople involved in creating these works and gain a deeper appreciation for Tiffany’s artistry through his company’s renowned creations, including domes at the Chicago Cultural Center and the Art Institute of Chicago, as well as several remarkable mosaics.
