Hello Docents,
The time we’ve all been waiting for has come! We will be re-starting walking tours on a limited schedule starting on Saturday, February 13th. The tour schedule will be posted this Saturday at 10:00 AM for tours departing February 13th – March 14th.

Starting March 15th, we expect to add more tours to the schedule such as Must See, Chicago Architecture A Walk Through Time, Mid-Century Modern, and Chicago Icons
Tours will only go on sale as docents sign up. Sign-ups will be closed 1 week before the tour date. If there’s no docent signed up, the departure will be cancelled. We encourage you to sign up early.
Please remember, if you are not able to give a tour you have signed up for, the job is yours to find a replacement.
A few other notes:
- The Center will not be open, so restrooms are not available.
- The reopening of the Center is still being determined and we hope to communicate more about that in the near future.
- Tours will remain capped at 6 guests per docent.
- Guests and docents must wear masks the entire tour.
- Guests and docents are required to maintain social distancing.
Thank you for your support and flexibility during these ever changing times. I’m looking forward to seeing you all out on the streets again soon!
