About this event
A dated exhibition at the Cultural Center built around what sound feels like rather than what it sounds like: step inside the thunder of a taiko drum, or let a saxophone, cello or bass wrap round you as colour, texture and movement. Made with and for Deaf and hard-of-hearing audiences, and one of the more genuinely unusual things on in the Loop.
Why we picked it
A free, dated exhibition that turns music into something you feel, in the middle of the Loop.
Free entry
The City of Chicago exhibition page states: Admission is FREE. Open Daily, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Exhibitions close 15 minutes before the building closes.
