| Grape vs. Grain Smackdown Dinner | The debate has gone far beyond tastes great or less filling when it comes to beer. In fact there are those among us who believe that beer deserves a place at the table equal to (or perhaps greater than?) wine. Ed Malone and Keith Huizinga invite you to jump into the ring and join the debate. The evening will include a multi-course gourmet dining experience, each course will have a specially selected wine (Ed) and beer (Keith) for our guests to sample. You will then have the opportunity to vote your opinion of the best pairing for each course. At the end of the evening we will tally the votes and determine once and for all (or at least until next year) the champion of fermented beverages. | 8 | 0 | .00055E7 | 55 | 5/9/15 6:00 PM | N | N | |

| Chicago's architectural history on your wall | When chewing-gum magnate William Wrigley Jr. started scouting locations for his company headquarters, he chose a site at the northwest corner of Michigan Avenue and the Chicago River. When construction began in 1920 the Michigan Avenue Bridge was still under construction, there were no major office buildings north of the Chicago River and Michigan Avenue to the north was known as Pine Street. Designed by the Chicago architectural firm of Graham, Anderson, Probst & White, the towers were dressed in a light cream-colored terra cotta. The building is a distinctive icon on Chicago’s skyline.

Bonnie, Stephen, Joan, Mila and Nile are taking you on an unforgettable trip to Peru. Forget that you are in Oak Park or River Forest or that Hemmingway or Wright even existed. We are forging our way up to Machu Picchu and passing out Cocoa Leaves (optional) for the high altitude; join our expedition! But first, you need the proper gear. Upon arrival, Mila will dress you in typical garb from the floating islands of Uros. Hats, scarves, vests, and for the ladies, long fancy earrings! Get ready for your train ride on the Orient Express to Cusco. On board, Nile will teach each of you how to make a Pisco Sour so that you can enjoy the music and native dances performed right before your eyes! When you arrive, you will enter the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Joan will serve you appetizers of Tequenos (cheese sticks) and Peruvian potatoes with Guacamole, as Bonnie recreates in story what it was like to visit Urubamba. (Hemmingway, eat your heart out!) Before we climb that mountain we need sustenance. So a lovely dinner start of Ceviche of Shrimp, and Mock Turtle Soup served by Stephen will open your appetite. As you drink your Pinot grigio, we will serve the traditional “Papa Rellena” and “Pollo Boracho” drunken beer chicken with a lovely salad. Over a dessert of Arroz con Leche (Peruvian Rice Pudding) you will get a chance to see the world’s deepest canyon (Colca Canyon) and experience the largest bird known to mankind, the Andean Condor. | 8 | 0 | .0006E7 | 60 | 9/19/15 6:00 PM | N | N | |

| Mime Interactive Seminar | Have you ever tried to mime or silently communicate instead of using words? Have you ever wondered what it would be like to express yourself more fully with your body? Bill O'Connor introduces the art of mime to all interested in this 90 minute interactive session. No prior experience required. All aged participants are welcome. You will experience simple physical techniques that will guide you toward creating popular mime illusions: the wall, creating the illusion of objects with just the use of your hands and more elusive challenges like embodying emotion and expressing abstract ideas with just your physicality. Mime has been considered a universal language. Come spend an hour or so putting the universal into your unitarianism! | 15 | 7 | .0000999E7 | 9.99 | 4/19/15 1:00 PM | N | N | |

| An Artful Afternoon - featuring Turkish Art past and present |
Leave the winter doldrums and join us for an Artful Afternoon with a focus on Turkish culture, including classic Turkish desserts with a presentation on the art scene in Istanbul. You will be greeted with a classic Turkish welcome: Limon Cicegi Kolonyasi to cleanse your hands; a small glass of Vizne suyu (cherry juice) a sign of welcome, and a taste of Lokum (classic Turkish Delight). Turkey is a nation of sweet tooth’s. Desserts and puddings are eaten at any given time during the day. Cay and kafve flow freely, and are served from Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar to sidewalk cafes. Anne will regale you with treats learned from her Turkish cooking class. Ed has mastered the fine art of making Baklava. Expect Turkish Cay and Kafve served with Peynir helvasi (cheese halva), Yogurtlu pasta (yogurt cake), Baklava, Turkish savories, Revani (semolina sponge cake in syrup), Anadolu ispanak ezmesi (spinach with yogurt and pine nuts), Sigara boregi (cheese pastries), among other Turkish delights. You will get a brief history of these dishes and their ingredients. A special highlight of the Artful Afternoon: Turkish Art: Past and Present. This is a visual presentation and discussion of art from The Istanbul Modern Museum (featuring modern and contemporary Turkish art), and the Sakip Sabanci Museum (known for its calligraphy collection) in Istanbul. We include scenes from the 13th Annual Istanbul Biennial which focused on the power of public space in terms of social struggles, art and politics. Anne will share a video of an art work called “Undressing” which features both the political and artistic purpose of the Muslim head scarf. We promise you will not be bored.

Join us for a spring break vacation in colonial Mexico without leaving Oak Park!

Our Mexican Fiesta will include Rich’s famous magaritas, Mexican beers, tasty appetizers from the pages of Rick Bayless’ cookbooks, and a meal that showcases some of the divine dishes from the film. Spicy Mexican corn soup, Chiles en Nogada, our version of roasted quail with rose petals, tamales, Tres Leches cake, and Mexican hot chocolate are a few of the favorites that will be included. After the Fiesta, we’ll join star-crossed lovers Tita and Pedro in a showing of “Like Water for Chocolate,” the wonderful film that exemplifies Mexican magical realism.
