Mission Statement:
The Chicago Humanities Festival's mission is to create opportunities for people of all ages to support, enjoy and explore the humanities. We fulfill this mission through our annual festivals, the fall Chicago Humanities Festival and the spring Stages, Sights And Sounds, and by presenting programs throughout the year that encourage the study and enjoyment of the humanities.
Our Goals are to:
Bring the world's best and brightest humanists together to examine and celebrate the humanities
Showcase the riches of the world's cultures and their contributions to the humanities
Gather together new and diverse audiences to enjoy the humanities
Encourage and enable teachers and students in their study of the humanities
Draw international attention to the importance of the humanities
Foster collaboration, cooperation and dialogue among the artistic, cultural and educational communities that provide life and support to the humanities
