Private, behind-the-scenes tour at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts

You are invited to a private, behind-the-scenes tour at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts, University of Illinois.  The Center is dedicated to the advancement of education, research, and public engagement through the pursuit of excellence and innovation in the performing arts.  Embracing the art of the past as well as the art of our time, the Center supports the belief that creativity is a core human characteristic and that the arts hold uniquely transformative potential.  Through its multiple and integrated roles as classroom, laboratory, and public square, Krannert Center serves as a touchstone for the exploration and expansion of human experience.

The tour will start at 4:30 pm on June 29 and lasts about 1 hour.  It features Krannert Uncorked with singer-songwriter duo Jaigh Lowder and Jill Manning. Both play guitar, Jill is the primary vocalist.  We will meet in front of the “Tours Start Here” sign at the ticket office.

After the tour, we will have a happy hour at the Kranner Center till about 6:30 pm.  Light appetizers will be provided and drinks will be on your own.
