Block Party
Every year, our entertainers, management, and patrons join forces to present an all day block party, and donate all the proceeds to The Make A Wish Foundation.
The Block Party will take place on July 9th, 2011, beginning at 12 noon. This year’s activities line-up includes Street art with the kids, Balloon, clown and magic shows, a visit from the Chicago Fire Department, a collection of children’s entertainers and a Moonwalk. Patrons will have the opportunity to take their chances on Raffle prizes including Sox and Cubs tickets, Gallery Cabaret T-Shirts and Jackets. A generous lunch will be available for $5, and dinner for $10, featuring summer comfort food like Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, Pork Chops, Corn on the Cob, Ribs, and other picnic favorites, hot off the grill. The proceeds from the raffle and food sales will be donated directly to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
Music begins at 12pm.
