Broadway in Chicago President and CEO Lou Raizin will visit Northwestern to convene people from across the university to learn more about his vision for the Cultural Stadium in Chicago: where he imagines the possibility of linking art and engineering with a kinetic or robotics-related sculpture to inspire wonder in the Loop.
The Cultural Stadium reimagines downtown Chicago as a vibrant, inclusive arena of cultural life—where every street, bridge, and building becomes a stage. Inspired by the scale and spirit of a stadium, the concept brings culture to the forefront through art, live performances, and creative community spaces. With projects like the LaSalle Street transformation, it blends affordable housing, artist studios, and public exhibitions to make culture accessible and alive. This vision calls for structural shifts—zoning, funding, and public-private collaboration—to turn downtown into a bold, living showcase of Chicago’s creativity and diversity. A place where culture isn’t background—it's center stage.
