Surprising things can happen when artists and scientists collaborate. In this unique program at the Chicago Cultural Center, the public can hear from pioneering visual artists, dancers, musicians and culinary artists, and the biologists, chemists, mathematicians and engineers who have partnered with them on unusual projects. Conversations feature presentations and discussions between actual collaborators, while Salons offer more intimate opportunities for artists and scientists to meet, discuss and interact around specific topics.
