A Message from the CEO-Architecture & Design Film Festival

Dear Docents and Volunteers

It has been my pleasure to meet many of you in the weeks since I started as CEO of the CAC. One of many thoughts you shared with me is that you would like more frequent communication directly from me. This will be the first in that communication, which is an open line between all of us.  I do look forward to seeing you all at the Film festival, more information is below, which we also have sent out to staff.   What a great way to beat the cold Chicago winter!

My Best,

Eleanor
