Dear Friend,
I’m Douglas Druick, the President and Eloise W. Martin Director of the Art Institute of Chicago. We’ve been preparing for the holidays for weeks here at the museum and thought you might like to see this insider’s look at how we’ve been getting ready. Please enjoy our 2012 holiday video. We are ready for your visit with mistletoe, music on the Grand Staircase, wreaths and red bows, special gallery talks, and velvety hot chocolate. We’re also very pleased to introduce our new “Gifts to the City” tour, which showcases wonderful recent acquisitions to further build Chicago’s cultural legacy. We hope to see you here.
With holiday cheer,
Douglas Druick
