Explore the Read/Write Library at Hull-House & enjoy crafts and activities for all ages.

The Hull-House Museum is proud to present Read/Write Library, a pop-up collection of books, comics, journals, zines, and other creative material that celebrates communities across the Chicago area. We invite visitors of all ages to explore the library’s unique collection and consider how work typically left out of libraries and museums can inform our understanding of local history.

Come visit Read/Write Library at the Hull-House Museum with stories about your own neighborhood. Bring your friends and chosen family and join us for activities led by Read/Write Library and our pals at the Chicago Creative Reuse Exchange. This event is free and open to the public.

Craft supplies, other materials, and snacks are provided.

Family Day is a quarterly program that invites Chicago families to spend an activity-filled afternoon at the Hull-House Museum. Each Family Day offers craft-making, guided tours, and other participatory activities that draw on the histories of the Hull-House settlement. Activities are held in the Residents' Dining Hall. Free and open to the public, Family Day encourages young people and adults to learn, create, and connect with one another.

Summer – July 2024
