Finally, festival season’s in full swing! Missing your favorite bash can be a real bummer to your summer, but it’s far from easy to keep up with all of Chicago’s fabulous affairs. That’s why I love the Chicago Reader’s nice, neat, simple list of what’s happening each day (yes, day!) this summer in Chicago. 110 events. 1 neat little list. Here are a few of my favs during June.
