  • Rich History – Discover the architectural and cultural heritage that makes Evanston unique including a stop at the Evanston Friends Meetinghouse.
  • A Perfect Mother’s Day Gift – Treat Mom (or yourself!) to a memorable day of beauty, history, and charm.
  • PLUS! A trolley, snacks at the Arrington Lagoon Cafe, a plein air paint out with Evanston Made on the Dawes House grounds, special commemorative totes, music, and more.
