Last month, we were looking forward to welcoming spring here in the city, and, as I write this, they are calling for 70 degree weather. This change in weather also ushers in some very exciting events at the Chicago History Museum this month. you’ll want to catch the Prohibition Seminar to learn how the law and amendment came to be. Plus, no lecture on prohibition would be complete without an additional lecture on Al Capone. Get Capone! is a lecture on the the hunt for the notorious gangster. Rounding out the Prohibition theme is the film Rumrunners, Moonshiners, and Bootleggers screening for Project Sundays.
