Souk @ Cultural Center
The Casablanca committee of Chicago Sister Cities International presents this recreation of a traditional Moroccan marketplace, "featuring beautiful, authentic items from Morocco." While it would be nicer to actually go to Casablanca, this market should provide a tantalizing taste of our exotic sister city. Not to mention a source of unique gifts. 9 AM to 7 PM. 78 E Washington. For more information, call 312-744-8074 .
