SUMMARY:Walking Tour | Historic Old Town
DESCRIPTION:The Chicago History Museum sits on the edge of Old Town\, a neighborhood rich in history. The Chicago area was home to the Potawatomi\, whose villages were built on these lands. After they were forcibly removed\, German farmers settled there to make their homes. Since then\, it has served as an enclave for Puerto Rican migrants\, a home to the first gay rights organization in the US\, as well a vibrant arts scene. \nJoin CHM volunteer Carol Fitzgibbons to explore stories of recovery from the 1871 Great Chicago Fire and the neighborhood as the center of Chicago bohemianism in the 1960s and ’70s. Highlights include a post-Fire shelter cottage\, the Midwest Buddhist Temple\, numerous historic residences\, and St. Michael’s Church\, one of only seven buildings to survive the fire. \n$25\, $22.50 members  \nTour runs 1.5 to 2 hours. Meet at the Chicago History Museum.  \nTour also includes free admission to the Chicago History Museum\, good for one week from tour date.

SUMMARY:Walking Tour | Bronzeville
DESCRIPTION:Join author and historian Bernard Turner on this walking tour and see the names and contributions of Chicago’s most influential African Americans on the Walk of Fame\, landmarks\, public art reflecting the histories of the neighborhood\, and stories about the ways African Americans shaped the history and culture of this South Side neighborhood. \nThe Great Migration\, a long-term movement of African Americans from the South to the urban North\, transformed Chicago and other northern cities between 1916 and 1970. Chicago attracted slightly more than 500\,000 of the approximately 7 million African Americans who left the South during these decades. Before this migration\, African Americans constituted 2 percent of Chicago’s population; by 1970\, they were 33 percent. What had been in the 19th century a largely southern and rural African American culture became a culture deeply infused with urban sensibility in the 20th century. And what had been a marginalized population in Chicago emerged by the mid-20th century as a powerful force in the city’s political\, economic\, and cultural life \n$25\, $22.50 members  \nTour runs 1.5 to 2 hours. Meet at the SE corner of 35th Street and Martin Luther King Drive.  \nTour also includes free admission to the Chicago History Museum\, good for one week from tour date. \nMasks are optional for our outdoor walking tours. Learn more about our COVID-19 safety policies and procedures.
