Clarence Ewing: The Million Year Trip writesTHIS WEEKEND: Ravenswood ArtWalk
Ravenswood Avenue is one of the most unique thoroughfares in Chicago. Strategically tucked between the busier and noisier streets on the North Side, tree-lined Ravenswood is a parallel oasis of commercial and creative activity, an urban planner’s dream come true.
This weekend the numerous artists who work on the avenue will be on display at the 10th annual Ravenswood ArtWalk. Over 40 studios will be open to the public for free. There will also be live music, presentations, film screenings, local food, beer by Goose Island, and the RAW Street Fair. Enjoy the rooftop lounge and sculpture garden, as well as a trolley service that will provide architectural tours.
Autumn is in the air, and this is a perfect way to spend what’s going to be a wonderful weekend inside and out before Winter sets in once again. See you there!
Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 1 & 2 / Ravenswood Avenue, between Addison & Lawrence / 11:00am – 7:00pm (Sat.) – 6:00pm (Sun.) / All Ages
Erin Van Ness writesLast chance to help CHIRP fatten up for the long winter ahead!
If you’re one of the amazing people who has already become a CHIRP member in the last two weeks, helping us raise $7,570 towards our $10,000 goal, we would like to extend a warm and heartfelt THANK YOU! Supporters like you who value this station enough to contribute your own hard-earned cash to the cause make this station possible.
If you haven’t had the chance to become a member during the campaign, or if you’ve been meaning to give and just somehow keep putting it off, don’t wait! The time to act is NOW. You have one last day, one last chance, to step up and help CHIRP reach our goal. We are SO CLOSE to making this goal a reality, and we simply cannot do it without your help.
We make giving easy. Just visit http://chirpradio.org/donatenow today!
