    Join a fabulous new book group on the Near West Side!

    This fall, the National Public Housing Museum partners with the Chicago Public Library Little Italy Branch and One Book, One Chicago to read Olga Dies Dreaming by Xochitl Gonzalez and explore themes of community and displacement.

    Get to know your fellow readers at a mixer, read the book, and then reconvene with the book group to discuss.
