OPENING THE VAULT:
Wonders of the 1893 World Fair
Sunday MAY 4, 2014
We travel back to 1893 and experience the excitement of the White City and discover artifacts and specimens from the
Field Museum’s collection that have rarely been exhibited in the past 120 years. We will have lunch at the Walnut Room,
a Chicago landmark since 1907, and then “Devil in the White City” Bus Tour with Diane Dillion as our guide. Ms Dillion
is the Director of Scholarly and Undergraduate Programs at the Newberry Library in Chicago (a privately endowed,
independent research library for the humanities and social sciences). Emphasis is on the strong connection between
Chicago’s built environment in the early 1890s and how powerfully it shaped the lives of everyone who came in contact
with it.
