Whilst we solve difficulties at the main site hgchicago.org, here are some basic updates about the Henry George School of  Chicago

(1) Henry George Day will be celebrated September 2,  3-7 PM in Evanston.  All friends of the School are welcome.  Please let us know you’re coming, by Wednesday Aug 28 if possible.  It’s a potluck, let us know what you’ll bring, or donate some money if you can. When you RSVP you’ll get the address and other details.

(2) Introducing Progress & Poverty will be presented Tuesday September 17, 6:15PM at 333 S. Wabash.  Everyone is welcome and there is no charge, however you must pre-register due to building regulations. This is a two-hour presentation with discussion providing an overview of Henry George’s most important ideas — how to solve the problem of poverty here and now.

(3) Introducing Progress & Poverty is also the first session of the full Progress & Poverty course, which continues on Tuesday evenings thru November 19. If you choose to sign up, you’ll get a copy of the main text and other materials, and asked to pay a $25 registration fee.

(4) The Invisible Robbery Tour will run Saturday, October 12, starting 1PM from Wabash & Van Buren. It’s free, but pre-registration assures that you’ll get the hardcopy handouts.
