Spring is in the air! Get out and experience Chicago’s North Shore!

Now that winter is officially over, it’s time to get out and experience all that Chicago's North Shore has to offer.  As the weather begins to warm, the local neighborhoods begin to buzz with activity.  Since I have over 25 years of North Shore real estate experience, believe me when I tell you that there’s something for everyone to partake in this spring.

Eggs to Chicks Exhibit

Spring is for new beginnings, and the Kohl’s Children’s Museum demonstrates just that to North Shore children with an exhibit that contains over 100 hatching eggs.  Children will be able to witness the cycle starting in an incubator that is just their viewing height through new born chicks running about in a pen.  They can also enjoy all of the permanent exhibits including Adventures in Art, Powered by Nature, and the Ravina Festival Music Makers.  Plan a visit for a delightful and educational family experience.

Why not experience a Shakespearian classic in the intimate 50-person setting of a local North Shore theater while you have the chance?  Located at the Evanston Main Street Metra Station, Piccolo Theatre, Inc. is a professional performing ensemble that focuses on performing contemporary and classic comedic works.  The Chicago’s North Shore historic venue was almost demolished in 1999, but Piccolo Theatre Inc. was at the front of the effort to preserve and restore the venue.  It is now also home to the Custer Fair and Piccolatté Cafe as well.
