1st Friday

The Heart of Illinois Sweet Adelines Chorus performs holiday favorites 6-6:30
Since 1982, the chorus has focused on a cappella four-part harmony arranged in the barbershop style. The all-female chorus has members of all ages, with mother and daughters and sisters together on the stage. The harmony of barbershop weaves them together like the chords they sing.

A Small Wonder Gift Shop 
A small wonder means small work from local artists and that means work priced for holiday gifts! Gallery 3R is turned into a gift shop for small works of art. Just like a gift shop, buyers may take home the item at the time of purchase. Shop early for the art lover in your life. Glass, ceramics, paintings, sculpture, jewelry, original prints and lots more will be on display.

Chicago Modern Quilt Guild
Founded in 2009, Chicago Modern Quilt Guild has 170 members from the Chicago area. The “Take the Shirt Off My Back” challenge consisted of using shirts from family, friends and the artists’ own closets, to create a quilt true to each maker’s aesthetic. At the core is consciousness of the widespread waste in the textile industry.
