EUNIC CHICAGO NETWORKING EVENT
What is EUNIC Chicago?
EUNIC Chicago is a network of European national institutes and organizations engaged in cultural activities beyond their national borders. EUNIC brings together organizations from all 28 EU member states in a local cluster of its global network. By pooling together the resources and expertise of its members, EUNIC is able to work on common areas of interest. EUNIC is a recognized partner of the EU and its stakeholders are defining and implementing European policy on culture inside and outside the EU. EUNIC promotes cultural diversity and cultural dialogue. It also advocates for a stronger role for culture in public policies at both European and international levels.

Our goal is to promote and support the launch of European cultural events in the city (book clubs, exhibitions, film series, conferences, theatre, partnerships, etc.), all designed to reach a wide and new audience and to engage the Chicago public with the varied European facets of their cultural heritage.
