Preserving La Grange Area’s past. Inspiring its future.

Upcoming Events

History on Tap  |  November 18th   6:00 – 8:00 pm

Join us at Milk Money Brewing and raise a glass to the La Grange promise that was destined to be broken. Enjoy Old No. 10, a locally inspired beer from Milk Money Brewing, and help support the La Grange Area Historical Society with every purchase. When La Grange was founded, an advertisement posted in downtown Chicago boasted a list “of the many advantages offered by La Grange”  ~ Number 10 was, “No Saloons allowed in town…”and the rest is history!
