My Chinatown

Opens December 5, 2010

Chicago’s Chinatown is unmistakable, but what’s behind the ornate building facades and signs covered in Chinese characters? Who are the people who make our Chinatown such a distinct and vibrant neighborhood? This winter, the Chicago History Museum presents its first ever theater experience using the sights, smells, and voices of Chicago’s most recognizable neighborhood to tell its most unfamiliar stories.
