  Take a look inside some of Chicago's most famous buildings during Open House Chicago (OHC) Weekend! If you have never attended an OHC event before, this is a rare opportunity to explore some hidden gems that are typically not available to the public. All are welcome to attend.

  
  

  How it works: register for the event if you would like to attend OHC with us on Saturday, October 17th; we will contact registrants to suggest ideas for our tour; shortly before the event, we will send out an itinerary with an exact meeting location. Depending on interest, we can include a lunch stop, or adjust the start and end time.

  
  

  You can read more about OHC and look for ideas here.
