A Night at the Blind Pig Speakeasy An Evening to Enrich Evanston’s History

January of 1919, the Prohibition Amendment to the Constitution went into effect. Evanston was already the epicenter for the temperance and prohibition movements, modeling and influencing national trends and opinions. In this centenary year, the Evanston History Center turns its summer gala into an opportunity for the community not only to view the “Dry Evanston: The Untold Story” exhibit, but to experience a little of the Prohibition Era vibe as our history comes alive! Next year’s Summer Gala will be held Saturday, August 29th, 2020. For more information visit evanstonhistorycenter.org
