Together, We Will Persevere.
Such a mix of emotions going on as we learn to navigate through this unusual time. One of the most powerful occurrences derived from this period of quarantine is seeing our community band together. Whether it’s the WPBCC (Wicker Park Bucktown Chamber of Commerce) sharing restaurants on their Instagram or the Children’s Museum offering slime tutorials, we would like for this community educational resource page to serve as a home for all the wonderful things that our partners and our community have put together to help support you. Be safe, educated, enlightened, and entertained. If we can pull together at a distance, imagine what our community can look like once the quarantine is lifted.

Since having to close their physical doors, Kohl Children’s Museum has burst open their virtual doors at the Home Zone.

You can even visit them for a virtual tour on youtube and take a quick summertime walk through the pollinator garden that Rose donated. <3
