See what it’s like when streets are filled with people and the street becomes your playground. Open Streets--celebrates Chicago's boulevards that were part of the Burnham Plan--and will give friends and families the chance to enjoy the streets the way they want: biking, dancing, playing, walking and more!
The free event combines last year’s two Sunday Parkways event into one huge eight-mile event. Like last year, Open Streets will span from Logan Square to Little Village, passing through Humboldt Park, North Lawndale and Garfield Park along the way.
There is no event registration, and participants can join in at any point along the route.
Take a step off the route at any of the community-run activities. The lively scenes will display each community’s flavor with performances, children’s games, art activities, workout classes, music and much more.
Major funding provided by the Chicago Community Trust. Open Streets is also supported by Local Initiatives Support Corporation.
