Calling all plant lovers! As autumn descends and leaves begin to drop, we have something to add a splash of green to your indoor spaces. SSA 18 is hosting a plant giveaway event at Space Park on Roscoe, where Brightview Landscapes will be on hand for a portion of the event to provide plant care instruction to anybody who wants to provide these beautiful summer plants a cozy winter home. The beautiful foliage in our planters up and down Halsted can be a part of your plant family! Mark your calendar for September 27th, from 1pm to 6pm, and come down to adopt a plant. Don’t miss out on this great opportunity to enrich your green collection!
Santa Speedo Run Northalsted
Santa Speedo Run
Each year since 2011, hundreds of participants have spent a December day running through the heart of East Lakeview in Chicago, clad in nothing more than Santa hats, speedos and other holiday attire.
Why?
Because it’s great fun and raises funds for a great cause, Center on Halsted.
The Center is the Midwest’s most comprehensive community center dedicated to advancing community and securing the health and well-being of LGBTQ people across Chicagoland.
Your run makes a huge difference.
