When and Where is the Lab?

The Lab will take place in Williams Bay, WI from May 28th - June 11th, 2023. The centerpiece of the immersion, Yerkes Observatory, is located 90 miles northwest of downtown Chicago. This “birthplace of modern astrophysics” is a site of inquiry and imagination and houses the world’s largest telescope of its kind! For more information, please visit https://yerkesobservatory.org/


The Lab ‘24 will also host events at Tiny Tempest Farms and Black Point Estate and Gardens. Artists will have a chance to explore Williams Bay and the small towns surrounding the beautiful Geneva Lake.
