Anyone who has attended a recital at the NIU School of Music in the last 40 years has had the opportunity to sit in an iconic Herman Miller Eames chair. Now, you have the opportunity to own one (or more) of those chairs.
The School of Music has replaced the chairs as part of an ongoing series of upgrades to the recital hall, and is selling the original chairs through an online store. You can look at photos of all 120 available chairs and select the exact ones you’d like to purchase. The chairs are sold as-is, purchases can be made by credit card only, and shipping or delivery are not available. You must make arrangements to pick up your chairs.
Proceeds from the sale of the chairs will go directly to improvements to student spaces in the Music Building including upgrades to practice rooms and common spaces.
