Chicago House Music: The Soundtrack to Your Summer
If the monthly "Hot Mix Lunch" DJ series wasn't enough to get excited about, the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs has announced a new exhibit at the Cultural Center, due to open up on May 21. The exhibit, titled "Move Your Body", explores Chicago's House Music origins, and will include interviews and memorabilia that shows the timeline of this historic genre.
In addition, to celebrate the opening, there'll be a 3-hour Friday night DJ set at the Pritzker Pavilion titled "The House Legacy Project" and will feature DJs Jerry C. King and Joe Smooth. Check it on on May 22 from 6-9pm at the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park.
And the best part? It's all FREE.
