NEW HYDE PARK INSTAGREETER SERVICE LAUNCHES JUNE 6 Chicago Greeter Program Adds First Neighborhood Outpost
This summer, Chicago visitors can explore President Obama’s Hyde Park neighborhood through the new Hyde Park InstaGreeter program, a free visitor service offered by the Chicago Office of Tourism. Located at the Hyde Park Art Center (5020 South Cornell Avenue), the InstaGreeter Outpost is the first neighborhood offshoot of the popular Chicago Greeter and downtown InstaGreeter programs.
Every Saturday from June 6 - August 29, visitors can drop by anytime between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. for a free one-hour walkabout of Hyde Park guided by a friendly, knowledgeable volunteer Chicagoan. Visits are given on a first-come, first-served basis with no reservations needed. Chicago Greeters will provide “insider orientations” to Hyde Park through the informal walking tours, which are limited to groups of six or less.
