Anna Friedman, Assistant Curator of the Adler's world-class history of astronomy collection (and Chicago Map Society member) will give us a guided tour of the exhibit which she curated. The exhibit features a wide range of celestial charts and other works of art on paper with astronomical themes. Come help us celebrate the holiday season at the Adler - with splendid views both inside and out! The Adler Planetarium is served by CTA busses 12 and 146, and there should be plenty of parking available either on Solidarity Drive or in the lot. --- End Forwarded Message ---
