Reader’s Choice Lane Technical High School
You don’t have to wander very far to be bowled over by the stunning WPA and progressive-era murals at this sprawling north-side high school—66 in all. As Heather Becker, CEO of the Chicago Conservation Center and author of Art for the People, points out, “Seven of them . . . a particularly enchanting series celebrating Native American life done in 1913 . . . are installed right in the first floor lobby.” So just pretend you’re going to the front office. And try not to miss my favorite: the showstopping 40-panel series called The States, originally produced for the General Motors Pavilion at the 1933-’34 Century of Progress Exposition. It’s distributed throughout the school’s first floor, and it will blow your mind. 2501 W. Addison, 773-534-5400, lanetech.org. —Lisa Skolnik
