On December 8, the Evanston History Center will only be open for self-guided tours and exhibit viewing from 1-4 PM. There will be no guided tours.

Talks@EHC

Talks@EHC, the Evanston History Center’s discussion series, provides opportunities for Evanstonians to learn together about our city and its people. Through a wide range of topics- presented by authors, scholars, historians, local leaders, artists, and multi-generational residents- audiences explore their shared history and the meaning of community.

Talks@EHC take place in the warm and welcoming setting of the historic Dawes House, as well as at locations in other areas of Evanston, and are often hosted in partnership with other organizations. Each talk includes open dialogue and sharing through Q&A time built into the program. Talks@EHC reflect the diversity of peoples, stories, and perspectives in our City.  Through Talks@EHC, Evanstonians discover new ways that their own lives and stories connect to the bigger picture of our community, our city, and our world.
