Community Event - Virtual Chicago Author Series: Dr. Ann Keating
We're bringing the series to you online from the comfort of your own home! Join The Museums at Lisle Station Park for a FREE, thought-provoking, virtual discussion about our regional history and culture with local author Dr. Ann Durkin Keating. Ann Durkin Keating is the Dr. C. Frederick Toenniges Professor of History at North Central College in Naperville, Illinois. She is the author of numerous books about Chicago and is one of the editors of the Encyclopedia of Chicago. Keating's talk will explore Chicago through the eyes of Juliette Kinzie. Juliette is one of Chicago's forgotten founders. Early Chicago is often presented as "a man's city," but women like Juliette worked to create an urban and urbane world, often within their own parlors. With The World of Juliette Kinzie, we finally get to experience the rise of Chicago from the view of one of its most important founding mothers. **You MUST RSVP to receive a Zoom link to access the online event** Register here now: http://ow.ly/17nr50BYUl0
