Show held in Courtyard & entrance to Courtyard of Hyde Park Shopping Center. The Courtyard provides a wonderful setting for this event with benches, trees, flowers & tables. It is a popular destination for people to socialize and attend events as well as to shop & provides a great ambience for the show. Among other stores/shops a French Bakery & a French Restaurant are located in the Courtyard. Walgreens & Treasure Island also in center (Treasure Island is where University of Chicago people shop plus Hyde Park area customers and many customers who come from elsewhere). We have found customers very enthusiastic about the show as well as very knowledgeable. Show requested by members who exhibited here in the past & found customers to be very supportive of work created by the exhibitor. After the downtown Museum Campus, Hyde Park has the largest concentration of cultural organizations in the city. Several are part of the University of Chicago. A great space in the heart of Hyde Park with a great cultural diversity as it heavily patronized by professors, personnel & others from the University of Chicago plus Hyde Park residents and many who come from elsewhere.. Courtyard has a security gate which is closed at midnight and opens early in the morning (subject to change). Your display may be left overnight at your own risk. Unloading & loading is convenient & there is a large lot on the center for free parking. Both the center & customers support a quality show. Show widely publicized as well as advertised.

DIRECTIONS: You can exit Lake Shore Drive at 53rd & go to Lake Park & 53rd - turn South on 53rd. You will come to entrance of Hyde Park Shopping Center - note that Walgreens and Treasure Island are both prominently located there. Note that Courtyard is located at the bend of this L-shaped center.
