2021 LOOK BACK REPORT
To say that 2021 has been a moment of change for the Adler Planetarium would be a drastic understatement. With your support, we became a fully fledged virtual museum, with programs reaching stargazers across the world while staying firmly rooted here in Chicago.
As our brilliant new copper roof begins to emerge, a symbol of togetherness under the sky we all share, we are thrilled to take steps toward a full reopening in March 2022. As we wrap up one momentous year and look forward to the next, we’re excited to share with you the following recap of a year unlike any other.
