“Make no little plans; they have no magic to stir men’s blood…Make big plans, aim high in hope and work.”
- D.H. Burnham

On Thursday, July 2, Flashpoint Academy paid homage to the memory and legacy of famed architect and urban planner Daniel Hudson Burnham with a special preview screening of Make No Little Plans: Daniel Burnham and the American City, an Archimedia Workshop production.

Guests to this private screening, including descendants of Burnham himself who were instrumental in providing many of the documentary’s archival materials, gathered at Flashpoint’s downtown campus at 28 N. Clark Street in the building known today as Burnham Center. After a brief social hour, attendees were taken on a short tour of campus before being escorted to Flashpoint’s screening room for the feature presentation.
