PreConferenceEveningPre-Conference: Millennium Park Jazz Concert on Thursday Evening, July 8th - Concert starts at 6:30pm
We expect that many will travel from out of town and will want to get together informally to begin to meet and get to know each other. If you'd like to connect with others on Thursday evening, please join us at the Jazz Concert in Millennium Park.
Look for us in the vicinity of the Park Cafe (immediately south of the larger Park Grille restaurant) located right downtown on Michigan Avenue between Madison and Washington streets. Any concierge and almost anyone you might ask on the street will be able to tell you how to get to this central location. It's a cozy little venue so plan to arrive a bit early to help us stake out some tables for ourselves. The concert starts at 6:30pm and costs $8. Dinner food is available at reasonable prices from the Park Cafe. Afterward, we can retreat to another venue or continue on there in the Park, in the shadow of the Chicago Skyline.
