"Steelmakers" Exhibit at Griffin Museum of Science and Industry Celebrating the Material and Workers that Built Chicago
"Griffin Museum of Science and Industry will debut Steelmakers, a brand-new exhibit exploring the science and stories behind one of the world’s most essential and versatile materials, on March 6.
Through hands-on experiences, a collection of wide-ranging artifacts and oral histories, this exhibit highlights how steel became an indispensable part of our modern world, contributing to expansive industrial growth and creating deeply rooted steelworker communities right here in Chicago and the Calumet Region." msichicago.org/press/press-r… @msichicago

Thanks to everyone who attended and supported our annual cocktail reception on Friday! The event was a great success. Special thanks to our honorees, Former Labor Secretary Tom Perez, Operation Swing State, and Karen Yarbrough (posthumous award). Onward to victory on November 5!

It was an honor to get to speak at this event on Saturday, what a fun celebration!
Incredibly joyful celebration of the Warehouse at its Landmark Dedication Block Party on Saturday.
So much work to get it protected, but worth every minute!

40 years ago, the TV movie Mazes & Monsters premiered on CBS and taught us all that fantasy role playing games were deadly and that Tom Hanks was a cleric named Pardieu. Still is, to my understanding.

Chicago: The town so nice, they named it once! But it's still a city full of Sickos, so to help de-stress the Patriotic Americans who were visiting during the recent DNC, I created this coloring page for the new premiere print edition of The Onion:

An old sign revealed at 4822 N. Broadway (the building just north of the Uptown Theatre) says, "CHOW MEIN." Maybe a remnant of Harry Chan Chin Wai's Uptown Village, which opened there in 1926? Hat tip to @AndisRobeznieks for spotting this sign.
