Pritzker Forum on Global Cities 2023

The Chicago Council on Global Affairs is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing knowledge and engagement in global affairs. Their in-depth analysis and expert-led research influence policy conversations and inform the insights they share with their growing community. Through accessible content and open dialogue of diverse, fact-based perspectives, CCGA empowers more people to help shape our global future. In November of 2023, they relaunched the in-person Pritzker Forum on Global Cities and we were happy to support their planning team.

Our most involved day supporting the CCGA team was day one, which included the Opening Program and the Opening Reception at the Museum of Contemporary Art in downtown Chicago. Our team supported in developing the overall decor, F&B, and room setup design for the Opening Reception in the 1st Floor Atrium of the museum. Mixing the contemporary art look with the color pallet of CCGA colors, we created a colorful vibe to the space without becoming sensory overload.

The Opening Program took over the entire Theater of 400 seats while using a minimalist approach to stage design. The focal point of the stage was the large built in projection wall that we used three different motion graphic pieces to identify the three main segments to the program. Subtle changes to the designs assisted attendees in visually recognizing the program segments without (again) becoming sensory overload.
