Where to Stay: 21c Museum Hotel Chicago

Fall 2022|Trends, Art, Travel, Fashion

Located just steps from the famous Magnificent Mile shopping district in Chicago’s River North, 21c Museum Hotel Chicago is a one-of-a-kind experience that blurs the line between contemporary art museum and boutique hotel. 21c Chicago recently launched its fall/winter 2022 season of the “Art of”—a monthly series of events, activations, classes, and conversations showcasing and celebrating the art apparent in everything. On September 29, internationally renowned fashion photographer Nigel Barker hosted the “Art of Photography,” a one-night-only event showcasing his decades of fashion photography through an intimate, behind-the-lens photography masterclass and photo walk of downtown Chicago. And if you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be in front of the camera on “America’ Next Top Model,” the “Art of Photography” class also included portraits shot by Barker himself.
