A welcome sign spring is right around the corner! The Historic Pullman Foundation and Pullman National Monument shared Visitor Center at 11141 S. Cottage Grove Avenue in Chicago will be open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11:00 am to 3:00 pm beginning Friday, March 12th. So plan a visit soon. National Park Rangers will be at the Visitor Center to greet you.

You can see a short film about Pullman’s history, once described as the “world’s most perfect town.” View exhibits of original artifacts, Pullman railroad memorabilia and much more. Step back into history, take a self-guided tour and learn about future plans when Pullman National Monument opens this fall.

The Visitor Center follows health safety guidelines. Restrooms feature touchless toilets, faucets, soap dispensers, touchless paper towel dispensers and automatic lights. We have a touchless fountain and water bottle filling station. The Visitor Center is handicap accessible. We do require visitors to wear face masks and to practice social distancing.

Make the most of warmer days ahead and take a walk back in time in Pullman!

Dear Friend of the Calumet Region,
You are invited to join us for the 21st Annual Calumet Heritage Conference!
This year's Conference theme is Calumet Voices, National Stories and will highlight some of the diverse voices that collectively tell a story of national significance of the Calumet Region. We have taken advantage of the need to hold this year's conference online to bring together, in one virtual space, a diverse group of storytellers who will speak about their own efforts to save and interpret our region's heritage, as well as help us to understand the stories of those who built the Calumet Region and the living landscape we now inhabit. The virtual format allows us to expand the conference to include more presenters than ever before and we even included a virtual field trip!
