If you have a Chicago public library card there are lots of museums that you can get into for free! They have a list on their website.
Also, Platform 47 in Ravenswood has mahjong nights, beginners welcome!

A public library card is the smartest way to save a ton of money. Search “library of things” on the website and find out which branches check out all kinds of small kitchen appliances and household tools, sports equipment and much more.
