the Art Institute of Chicago's Summer Show, Gustave Caillebotte: Painting The World Comes to Chicago Loop
Chicago Loop Synagogue is delighted to participate in the Art Institute of Chicago’s “Project Windows,” a contest which celebrates its summer exhibition, Gustave Caillebotte: Painting His World. The contest was launched in 2012, in partnership with Stanley Smith of Oak Street Design, as a way for retailers to leverage the Art Institute’s world-class exhibitions that attract visitors from all over the globe. Over the years it has developed into a city-wide celebration of art and creativity, inspiring participants to craft beautiful, inspired, traffic-stopping displays and tap into our city's cultural energy.
Gustave Caillebotte: Painting His World includes more than 120 works—paintings, works on paper, photographs, and other ephemera from throughout Caillebotte’s career. In addition to recognizable works like Floor Scrapers and the Art Institute’s Paris Street; Rainy Day, the show presents lesser-known but pivotal works like the Musée d’Orsay’s recent acquisition, Boating Party, and the Louvre Abu-Dhabi’s The Bezique Game, as well as many works from private collections that are rarely seen by American audiences. Together, these works open a new window onto Caillebotte—as a complex figure with many interests, as an Impressionist who painted like no other Impressionist, and as an artist who captured his own, very distinct Paris.
Chicagoans and visitors are invited to cast a vote for their favorite design so be sure to stop in to show your support! Visit their website by clicking here to view all participants and vote for the Chicago Loop Synagogue until August 18, 2025.
Help Support Israel now!
Israel needs our help like never before, and to make sure we get voices heard and our funding to the right places, here is a list of organizations that are supporting Israel either through donations or through legislative action. While this list has been compiled from reliable sources, there are also a lot of scam artists taking advantage of the situation, so please thoroughly research any organization you decide to support.

Our Vision and Identity
Whether you work or live downtown, Chicago Loop Synagogue is your
spiritual home.
As the largest synagogue in the downtown area, we serve Jews with many differing needs. Some come to pray, some come to participate in our array of thoughtful programs or unmatched High Holiday services. No matter what causes you to engage with us, Chicago Loop Synagogue is committed to helping you find what you seek.
Our Building and its architectural history
The synagogue is also an architectural marvel which is regularly featured on architecture tours.
Among other features, it contains the magnificent Abraham Rattner stained glass artwork which takes up almost the entire Eastern facade of the Synagogue. Rattner lithographs are located in our Beit Midrash as well as the entry to the Social Hall. The Hands of Peace by Henri Azaz crowns the entrance to the Synagogue.
We were featured by the "Historic American Buildings Survey" by the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

A three-story high stained glass window, which has been called the biggest and best work of its kind in the US, if not the world, will be a magnificent backdrop for your simcha.
Impress your guests with the near-perfect acoustics in our soaring 535-seat sanctuary, upgraded social hall and full kosher kitchen. For more information, click here. To book a showing, click here or call 312-346-7370.
