Logan Arts Center: The Project
“ From the beginning, the process of designing the Logan Arts Center has been an example of creative collaboration that has brought together faculty, students, and staff from varied disciplines, working to create an environment that will inspire new forms of artistic practice and discovery.”

From concept to completion—over eight years in the making—the Reva and David Logan Center for Creative and Performing Arts is a reflection of collaboration. From the earliest stages of inception the center has evolved out of cross-campus, cross-disciplinary faculty, student, staff, board, and alumni conversations that are characteristic of Chicago’s culture. The result will be a hub of cross-boundary, experimental artistry. Dedicated to faculty and student practice and learning, the center is possibilities for reaching new standards in versatile, state-of-the-art environments for artmaking, critical inquiry, and a fruitful interaction between the two.
