Available Time Window

How much time will your group have to engage in a tour? The Legacy Walk, altogether, is one mile long and features 40 bronze memorials. It can take upwards to 4 hours to do a complete tour without any breaks. Generally, most working adults cannot afford that much of a time commitment so we offer you the option of selecting just the plaques you wish to see. (Please review the attached map. We can also do a “Greatest Hits Tour” if you would prefer.) Tours can include a pre-arranged dinner or lunch, coupled with a post-tour coffee or cocktails, depending on the time of day you come.
Meet at Center on Halsted for a Legacy overview, followed by a viewing of 4-6 bronze memorials; stop for a cocktail, followed by a viewing of 4-6 bronze memorials; stop for a cocktail, followed by viewing 2-4 bronze memorials, capped by hors d' oeuvres or dinner at a local restaurant. [Total elapsed time about 3-3.5 hrs.] (Please select your ideal tour duration plus additional activity)
Weekend Tour Duration & Additional Activity
NOTE: You can mix any of these scenarios up and add more plaques or see fewer to increase or decrease the length of engagement. You can eliminate the refreshments entirely and just add more plaques. You can request that we select the plaques for you based on a particular subject such as "Social Justice", or “The Arts”. It depends on your group's interests, how much time you can devote, and whether you sense this will be a more academically-focused engagement solely or something people will be drawn to as a social activity that is both educational and fun.
 
Pricing for Adults
Pricing for adults is $30 per person (min-max 4-25 people) for the tour alone. Students always tour for free with one comp’d adult advisor. Additional advisors are $30pp. The addition of coffee, cocktails, and/or meals are all extra but can be pre-purchased and pre-paid through a surcharge, on top of the basic tour charge, that will vary based on what type of engagement you select (i.e. the number of bars and/or the type of restaurant, etc.). We are very flexible so please feel free to craft the kind of gathering you feel your group would enjoy most! Please select a Billing Type from the options below.
