Thousands of people literally ran for their lives before the flames, unleashing remarkable scenes of terror and dislocation. \"The whole earth, or all we saw of it, was a lurid yellowish red,\" wrote one survivor. \"Everywhere dust, smoke, flames, heat, thunder of falling walls, crackle of fire, hissing of water, panting of engines, shouts, braying of trumpets, roar of wind, confusion, and uproar.\"<a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Currier_and_Ives\">Currier and Ives</a> - Chicago Historical Society (ICHi-23436)</figcaption></figure><p class=\"lead\">Chicago History Museum</p><p>The Chicago History Museum has been under construction for months now but is reopening in time to mark the anniversary of the Great Chicago Fire and to welcome visitors back to new spaces and an expansive exhibition covering the history of the fire itself.&nbsp;</p><p>Chicago's busy streets were taken over by flames for three days, overwhelming a city built of wood and causing severe destruction. After the fire died, recovery efforts exposed deep social and economic inequalities when more than 100,000 people became homeless, and society placed blame upon the Irish immigrant O'Leary family. The devastation also sparked change and regrowth in Chicago by introducing new fire safety guidelines and rebuilding as the resilient city known today.  &nbsp;</p><p>One hundred and fifty years later, <i>City on Fire: Chicago 1871 </i> guides visitors through the crucial events and conditions before, during, and after the fire—many of which draw striking comparisons to today's social climate. This family-friendly exhibition features more than 100 artifacts from the Chicago History Museum's collection, interactive and multimedia elements, and personal stories from survivors of the fire. The exhibition is designed for families to&nbsp;learn, explore, and&nbsp;discover&nbsp;the impact the Great Chicago Fire had on the city and the people who lived here. Featured in the <i>City on Fire: Chicago 1871</i> exhibition is a 40-feet-long painting study created as a guide for a larger Chicago Fire Cyclorama painting, which was displayed in Chicago in 1892-93 in a round building constructed for visitors to have an immersive experience.</p><p>Full exhibition info available at the museum's special website <a href=\"https://www.chicago1871.org/about\">Chicago1871.org</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><figure class=\"image\"><img src=\"https://res.cloudinary.com/dfafo598z/image/upload/v1721418974/q51fznfs7cqgydivfe2r.jpg\"></figure><p>&nbsp;</p><p class=\"lead\"><a href=\"https://driehausmuseum.org/programs/detail/fiery-night\">The Driehaus Museum</a></p><p>Part of the museum's Story Time: Fiery Night on Saturday, October 9 at 9:30 am and 11:00 am.&nbsp;</p><p>A child-friendly introduction to the Great Chicago Fire in a historic setting. Guess who’s coming to the Marble Palace for tea? Chicago’s own Mrs. Catherine O’Leary and the Nickersons’ neighbor, Mrs. Anna Tree! History comes alive during Story Time as kids meet these historical figures to hear a personal account of their experiences in 1871 and about the fire that changed everything. Mrs. Tree will recall one unforgettable incident through a reading of <i>Fiery Night: A Boy, His Goat, and the Great Chicago Fire,</i> by Sally M. Walker and Kayla Harren - a true story of strength, courage, and love that is part of the history of the Driehaus Museum neighborhood.</p><p><a href=\"https://46316.blackbaudhosting.com/46316/tickets?tab=3&amp;txobjid=358ab190-20b4-4968-821e-06fb7f996bd3&amp;mc_cid=4b5e10917f&amp;mc_eid=UNIQID\">BUY TICKETS </a>$15 for one adult and child; $5 for each additional child</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p class=\"lead\">Wrightwood 659</p><p>On view now is <a href=\"https://wrightwood659.org/exhibitions/romanticism-to-ruin/\"><i>Romanticism to Ruin: Two Lost Works of Sullivan and Wright</i></a>, an exhibition that &nbsp;attempts to conjure the essence of two long-gone masterpieces.

Larkin,&nbsp;who was&nbsp;an eyewitness to the vast destruction&nbsp;of&nbsp;the Chicago fire of 1871.&nbsp;The original Larkin &amp; Weller soap-manufacturing business was located on Halsted Street in Chicago, a couple of blocks from the edge of the fire. Larkin&nbsp;insisted&nbsp;that Frank Lloyd Wright design an&nbsp;\"absolutely fire-proof construction.\" In response,&nbsp;Wright created a&nbsp;steel-framed building that was clad in brick inside and out. Of course in the end, it wasn't fire that destroyed the Larkin&nbsp;Building,&nbsp;but mankind's blinding urge for&nbsp;\"progress,\" resulting in the 1950 demolition of Wright’s masterpiece to make room for a truck barn.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p></body></html>","published_at":"2021-10-07
