A Selection of Chicago Cultural Institutions
with Corresponding Study Guides for the CCC Community
Before scheduling a visit to any cultural institution, verify its current hours and dates of operation as well as admission prices and tour policies (whether you are scheduling a guided tour or leading a group of students yourself) by consulting its website and contacting the education department, if possible.
You are encouraged to bring the corresponding study guide with you on your visit, whether it is part of class assignment or for personal enrichment.
If you are a student working on a class assignment, you should use the study guide that your instructor provides for you.

What about ______?
There are many more excellent cultural institutions in the city of Chicago. The seven listed at the top of this page are not necessarily more relevant or important than others in the city. The cultural institutions linked through this website and tied to the study guides are those identified by a spring 2012 survey of Harold Washington College (HWC) faculty as the seven most frequently used in their courses.
This website can be expanded in the future to provide more study guides and connect CCC faculty, staff, and students to additional cultural institutions in Chicago, such as those listed here.
