    2027 WORLD CONFERENCE ON ART DECO HOST CITY ANNOUNCED:

    CHICAGO, HERE WE COME!


    We are pleased to report that Chicago has been selected as the host of the 2027 Art Deco International Conference™! Chicago has a rich architectural heritage including stellar examples of Art Deco. It was also home to the Century of Progress World's Fair in 1933-34, one of the defining events of the movement. Ideas for Pre- and Post-Conference include Milwaukee, Wisconsin as well as visits to Racine, Wisconsin and Oak Park, Illinois to see the work of Frank Lloyd Wright. We look forward to working with the Chicago Art Deco Society as plans evolve for the 2027 World Conference.
