Chicago real estate owners: this great city once again offers up a wide array of events for you to take part in! Whether it’s lending a helping hand, being on the cutting edge of cuisine, or exploring the arts that excite you, you can find a reason to leave your Chicago home this weekend.
Events
The disaster in Haiti is still weighing heavily on all of our minds. If you want to contribute to the cause this weekend, you can help by taking part in Le Passage’s benefit on Friday or eat at any of these restaurants this weekend and contribute to the ChiHelpsHaiti effort.
If you need to relax and get some exercise, celebrate Yoga Day USA at REI stores this weekend with classes varying in style and difficulty.
Popular River North bar Bull & Bear celebrates its one year anniversary all weekend. There’s no cover to partake in the three day bash, but RSVP is required.
The Toasted Ox in Lincoln Park hosts Bottles & Brushes from 2 – 5pm on Saturday. Get painting supplies and instruction while enjoying specials from the bar!
Restaurants
This weekend, maybe the recently opened Cuna in Lakeview will lure you out of your Chicago condo. The budget-friendly lounge offers global cuisine from a James Beard Award-nominated chef and operates from the philosophy that life is a party. Sounds good to us!
Logan Square is all over the radar of those who love great neighborhood pubs. This weekend, the ‘hood will see the opening of Longman & Eagle, where a seasonal menu meets a Chicago inn concept. The focus on comfort makes it a great place to spend a cold Saturday night!
And all this week, foodies will love Chicago Originals Restaurant Week. Eat three-course meals at any of the listed restaurants for $29.
Chicago real estate owners can take part in Chicago Originals Restaurant Week!
Movies
This weekend’s movie premieres can suit anyone’s tastes. If you’re looking for something uplifting, try Extraordinary Measures, about a dad’s quest to heal his children’s illness. The Tooth Fairy with Dwayne Johnson is good for a laugh, and the thriller Legion will satisfy a craving for action and suspense.
Enjoy your weekend around in the city, taking advantage of all it has to offer, and not cooped up in your Chicago condo! We’ll see you out there…
