November
Doorways of Chicago | November 4th 7:00 – 8:30 pm
Chicago-based photographer, tour guide, and influencer Ronnie Frey (better known as @doorwaysofchicago on Instagram) will join us to discuss his new book, his work—with its keen eye for details many overlook—and his deep love for Chicago’s layered architectural history. Guests will have the opportunity to view some of Frey’s photography collection and purchase signed copies of his new book.
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!
