Chicago has a long history of being on architecture's cutting edge. Today, Chicago continues to foster pioneers in the field, and women architects are no exception. During CAB 2017, Chicago Women in Architecture will showcase significant buildings and other works of architecture designed by women in our city. The CWA will guide visitors through different sites, projects, and offices throughout the city and discuss their impact in the past, present and future.
