Where in the World:
Chicago Hyde Park Village works every day to build a welcoming and inclusive community for all members and friends. Look for two large maps where we encourage you to place colored pins marking where in the world you were born and where you grew up. You will also have a chance to answer a few simple questions on paper so we all can learn more about the many different journeys that brought together our CHPV community. Our thanks to Dorothy Strang and CHPV's DEIA Team for their efforts on this initiative.

Free on-site parking at Augustana Lutheran Church!
