Open House Chicago

 The Open House Chicago Week-End was a big success in North Lawndale.

And if you haven't had a chance to participate, you can still take the Self Guided tour of some of the neighborhood's community gardens, with commentary by Blanche Killingsworth, Annamaria Leon and Dr. Israel.
