Stop by Hull-House's Open House! Today we are celebrating Jane Addams' 162nd Birthday and the opening of our newest exhibition, "Benedict Gallery: Revisiting Hull House's Art Educators".
Join us Tuesday, September 6th, for the opening of our newest exhibit, "The Benedict Gallery: Revisiting Hull-House’s Arts Educators". The gallery is a continuation of the Museum’s effort into exploring art education roots in Chicago. On view are Enella Benedict’s oil paintings and watercolors that have not been publicly exhibited since 1938.
Artist and arts educator Enella Benedict was one of the most influential Residents of Hull-House. She was the founder and long-time director of the Hull-House Art School and she holds the distinction of being one of the longest serving Residents, after Jane Addams, living and working at Hull-House Settlement for nearly 50 years. Her work was intrinsic to the growth of Hull-House as an arts institution and laid the foundations for Hull-House's most important artists-in-residence and its cultural and community impact.

A big thank you to the folks of Watcher for hanging out with us last night! We're so excited to see what hauntings Shane Madej and Ryan Bergara encountered during their investigation. Was it the woman in white? The Devil Baby? Jane Addams herself? We will all have to find out when the Hull-House episode of Ghost Files is released in September!
