If you've enjoyed "Break::The::Box," the fantastic Frank Lloyd Wright-related programs that the Unity Temple Restoration Foundation has been providing the last 2 years, then you're in for a treat in 2009. UTRF is celebrating the centennial of the building's dedication all year with special programs and fantastic events. We received the Break::The::Box line-up and thought we'd share with readers.

This series helps raise awareness and funds to restore and preserve Frank Lloyd Wright's Unity Temple. I've been able to attend the last 2 years of BTB and it is always insightful and engaging. I would highly recommend participating this year during the building's centennial celebration--it's a once-in-a-lifetime chance!
As a head's-up, UTRF is in the process of updating their website with more detailed information about these and other exciting events. In the meantime, if you have questions or would like to purchase advance tickets for any of the events, please call 708.383.8873 or email info@utrf.org.
