Looking for things to do in Chicago? Navy Pier is celebrating Black History Month with the Black Makers Market.

"Entrepreneurial spirit led black explorer Jean Baptiste Pointe DuSable to start the settlement that would become our great city, so we're happy that Navy Pier's celebration of Black History Month activates that spirit," said Navy Pier President and CEO Marilynn Garner.

In addition to the Black Makers Market, Navy Pier will have a new Black Live Artist Studio starting Wednesday, Feb. 1 in the Fifth Third Bank Family Pavilion. The studio will be highlighting two artists weekly throughout the month of February. The artists will perform their artwork live and open dialogue about Black artwork with guests who walk by. Hours for live art will vary Monday through Friday. The live art will take place from noon to 6 p.m.

In addition to our programming, we will be celebrating Black History Month on our social media channels by highlighting the staff who make Navy Pier operate.Related Topics
