George Bergstrom – Exhibit Host and Guest Services
Tim Thurlow, 2015
My husband and I came for the Chicago Icons walking tour and our tour guide (I want to say Tim?) was very informative and really gave us a different insight in the city. Re the exhibits: George came over and spoke to us; he was an absolute delight! He clearly is so passionate about the architecture of the city, he made everything so much more interesting and answered all our questions. – Rosalind, Chelmsford, United Kingdom
Rebecca Dixon, 2003
The CAC tours are all so great, so it was great to do the Art Deco Skyscrapers tour and see another side of the amazing architecture in Chicago. We visited about 5 Art Deco masterpieces and our docent Rebecca explained in depth the history and details of each building. Great tour. – Wayne, Sydney, Australia
Sylvia Dunbeck, 1987
OMG, this River Cruise tour and the ‘young lady’ Sylvia, will knock your socks off. We had scheduled this from far away on a recent visit to Chicago. Hours before I mentioned this to some folks (whilst watching the Bears win from Rush St), who said they go every year it’s so good. Hour and a half from wonderful Sylvia who keeps you on your toes with great knowledge, charm and engagement. – Jeff H., El Cerrito, CA
Kent Foutty, 2009
Six of us explored this virtually unknown Illinois Center Pedway with CAC guide Kenton, a font of knowledge, and learned it is a complement to the more well-known but separate Chicago Pedway further west. – Charles, Wilmington, NC
Betsy Jenkins, 2016
I wanted to thank Betsy again for a great tour of Art Deco Skyscrapers on Jan 18, that very cold day. I have already “ankled” back to a couple of the buildings she showed us. – G. Borzo, Chicago
Joan Winstein, 2012
Joan did a terrific job directing us through this maze as she shared historic and present-day useful information on the Chicago Pedway tour. She proved to us that a visitor could buy coffee, a variety of food, or home goods, secure a marriage license, a driver’s license, go swimming or get one’s nails done without going outside! Thank you for a well-informed tour. – LU, Chicago
