From 6-7:30 pm on Friday evening (June 26), Institute participants will have the option to take an architectural and sightseeing tour of Chicago by boat. On this 90-minute tour, we will cruise down the Chicago River with a tour guide who will talk about Chicago’s rich architecture and history, travel through the Chicago Lock, and view the Chicago skyline from Lake Michigan. The boat is fully equipped with restrooms and a snack bar.

COST: $23 per person. There are a limited number of tickets available on a first come, first served basis. If you would like to go, please be sure to purchase your ticket for the trip when you register. We can not guarantee the availability of tickets if you do not reserve ahead of time. Refunds will be issued only if the tour company cancels the trip.
