La primera posada fue un gran éxito\, con más de 300 residentes asistiendo a cada evento\, sabíamos que teníamos que continuar con estas celebraciones.\nEstamos orgullosos y emocionados de anunciar que\, en colaboración con los padres líderes de la Escuela Primaria Magnet Kanoon\, la Academia Escolar Saucedo\, la Escuela Comunitaria Primaria Spry y la Escuela Primaria Hammond\, presentaremos nuestra quinta serie anual de eventos tradicionales mexicanos:\n-La POSADA NAVIDEÑA será: jueves 22 de diciembre de 2022 de 16:00 a 19:00 horas en OPEN Center for the Arts\n-LA ROSCA DE REYES será: viernes 6 de enero de 2022 de 16:00 a 18:00 horas en OPEN Center for the Arts\n-EL DIA DE LA CANDELARIA será el viernes 3 de febrero de 2022 de 4p-6p en OPEN Center for the Arts\nEstarán La Posada\, Los Peregrinos\, Los Villancicos\, Los Aguinaldos\, Las Piñatas\, Los Tamales\, Los Buñuelos\, La Rosca\, Los Monito\, El Chocolate\, El Pozole\, El Champurrado\, El Ponche\, La Fruta\, La Música\, Los Talleres de Arte y Los Premios.

The idea was to provide the families in the community a space where these annual celebrations can be experienced and passed on to their children. These celebrations are focused on gathering families to sing\, walk\, dance\, perform\, make and break pinatas\, provide art activities and create a space for parents to share their stories from their childhood with their children\, family\, and friends.\nThese celebrations begin with the “Posada” in December\, followed by “La Rosca de Reyes” in January\, and close off on “El Dia de La Candelaria” in February. The first posada was such a great success\, with over 300 residents attending each event\, we knew we had to continue these celebrations.\nWe are proud and excited to announce in collaboration with parent leaders from Kanoon Elementary Magnet School\, Saucedo Scholastic Academy\, Spry Elementary Community School\, and Hammond Elementary School we will be hosting our 5th annual series of traditional Mexican events:\n-La POSADA NAVIDEÑA will be: Thursday\, December 22nd 2022 from 4p – 7p at OPEN Center for the Arts\n-LA ROSCA DE REYES will be: Friday\, January 6th 2022 from 4p-6p at OPEN Center for the Arts\n-EL DIA DE LA CANDELARIA will be on Friday\, February 3rd 2022 from 4p-6p at OPEN Center for the Arts\nThere will be La Posada\, Los Peregrinos\, Los Villancicos\, Los Aguinaldos\, Las Piñatas\, Los Tamales\, Los Buñuelos\, La Rosca\, Los Monito\, El Chocolate\, El Pozole\, El Champurrado\, El Ponche\, La Fruta\, La Musica\, Los Talleres de Arte y Los Premios.

SUMMARY:The Chicago River and Lake Michigan: Confused Waters
DESCRIPTION:Through the years\, the land and water around Chicago have been radically altered. In 1900\, the river was reversed. Meanwhile\, Michigan Avenue by Grant Park used to be lakefront property! Join us for a virtual presentation as we explore the ebb and flow of our celebrated lake and river. \nStanding at upper Wacker Drive and Columbus\, it’s always astonishing to remember that before 1803\, you would be wading in Lake Michigan. The modifications that have been made to the Chicago River have included dredging\, channeling\, damming\, tunneling\, legal decisions and breaching it at its South Branch headwaters to flow away from Lake Michigan. Likewise\, we have altered the shoreline of Lake Michigan and struggled with it as it fluctuated about six feet from a record low in 2013 to a record high in 2022. \nSpeaker: Kevin Griebenow \nKevin is a civil engineer with more than 25 years of experience inspecting and assessing the safety of dams. A CAC docent since 1993\, Kevin leads tours for guests of all ages. He has given presentations on structural engineering\, innovations in construction materials\, the construction and engineering feats of the 1893 World’s Fair and the design history of dams.

SUMMARY:LaSalle Street at a Crossroads
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a virtual roundtable conversation exploring ideas for a renewed LaSalle Street corridor\, which currently finds itself at a crossroads. How does an austere financial district transform into a vibrant 24-hour neighborhood\, and who will call this neighborhood home? \nIn many ways\, the fate of the LaSalle Street corridor and the broader downtown are intertwined. If the most viable future for downtown is flexible adaptation to a mix of uses\, there is no better place to test this hypothesis than along this iconic office corridor. Recognizing this\, the City of Chicago recently launched a planning initiative for a reimagined LaSalle Street\, freeing up all-important tax increment financing (TIF) and inviting development proposals. \nHowever\, there are questions about the challenges LaSalle Street must overcome: namely\, what is the prescription for its aging building stock? Will tax incentives be sufficient to spark investment in complex residential conversions and protection of the corridor’s landmark architecture? And how central is a redesign and greening of the public realm to LaSalle’s long-term success or failure? Our roundtable of leading local experts in planning\, design and real estate sets out to find answers.

SUMMARY:ONLINE LUNCH & LEARN: “THE ESCAPE ARTIST”
DESCRIPTION:In April 1944\, Rudolf Vrba became the first Jew ever known to engineer his own escape from Auschwitz and make his way to freedom. He did it to reveal the truth of the death camp to the world\, and to warn the last Jews of Europe what fate awaited them at the end of the railway line. \nAgainst all odds\, he and his fellow escapee Fred Wetzler climbed mountains\, crossed rivers\, and narrowly missed German bullets until they had smuggled out the first full account of Auschwitz the world had ever seen: a forensically detailed report that would eventually reach Franklin Roosevelt\, Winston Churchill\, and the Pope. In the end\, Vrba helped save 200\,000 lives\, but he never stopped believing it could have been so many more. \nDon’t miss our program with award-winning journalist and author Jonathan Freedland as he presents his new book about Rudolf Vrba’s incredible story\, The Escape Artist: The Man Who Broke Out of Auschwitz to Warn the World. \nMembers: Free; Non-Members: $5.00

SUMMARY:The Life and Times of Sultan Süleyman
DESCRIPTION:This program will be held in-person at the Newberry and livestreamed on Zoom. Free and open to all. Advance registration required. \nIn-Person Registration \nLivestream Registration \nJoin us as historian Kaya Şahin\, author of Peerless among Princes: The Life and Times of Sultan Süleyman\, and art historian Elizabeth Rodini discuss the sixteenth-century ruler\, during whose reign the Ottoman Empire became a truly global power. \nSüleyman presided over a multilingual and multireligious empire that promised peace and prosperity to its subjects while he clashed with the Catholic Habsburgs in Europe and the Shiite Safavids in the Middle East. His poetic output\, his appearances during public ceremonies\, his charity\, and his patronage of arts and architecture enhanced his reputation as a universal ruler with a well-rounded character. \nBehind that public façade\, Süleyman led a complicated life. He grew up with an overbearing father whose legacy was an advantage and a burden. Defying established practice\, he married a concubine named Hürrem whose love and affection became his true refuge.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Two Girls
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of Chicago director James Fotopoulos’s film “Two Girls.” \nThis is the story of young sisters in the American Midwest left alone with their increasingly unstable mother while their father is fighting in the Civil War. The film traces the girls’ naturally fraught sibling dynamic and the ways that their father’s absence ignites their imagination. When they meet a stranger in the forest they become enchanted by a world of creative work and nature\, a welcome distraction from their volatile mother. Play and the dreamlike space they inhabit provides an expansive and ultimately grounding setting for the girls’ response to war. \nFilmed in Chicago\, this work is an experimentation on a children’s fairy tale. Two Girls features German actress Isolda Dychauk. \nThis event is available for free. \nView the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfREVF44G-w \n“Fotopoulos is a notably talented\, prolific\, and obsessive filmmaker.” – Amy Taubin\, Artforum \n“Perhaps no other moviemaker so categorically denies compartmentalization\, falsifying dichotomies of underground and art film\, narrative and abstraction\, and black box and white cube\, while unabashedly appropriating\, celebrating\, and upturning the conventions of the horror\, sci-fi\, hardboiled\, and melodramatic genres.” – Fantasma: A James Fotopoulos Retrospective – Spectacle \n“Fotopoulos is certainly an auteur who makes up in artistic integrity what he forgoes in mainstream appeal …his films are imbued with unparalleled aplomb.” – Mapping the Obscure: James Fotopoulos Retrospective – Cine-File \n“Fotopoulos\, a filmmaker whose visions are as audacious as they are uncompromising.” – RogerEbert.com \n“There is no shot in a Fotopoulos film or video that does not mine the psychological affect of the frame\, the camera placement\, the lighting\, the lens. ” – Screen Slate \n100 min\nEnglish and German (with subtitles) \nFree parking at 5/3 Bank after 6:00 PM located at Western and Gunnison
