Chicago Matters Goes to Green Fest
On Saturday, May 17, Chicago Public Radio hosts a live remote from the Chicago Green Festival on Navy Pier. Make sure to tune in at noon on Chicago Public Radio, WBEZ 91.5 FM.
Whether you get around by bus, train, automobile or bike, chances are you've experienced a transit meltdown. Send Chicago Public Radio your best pics of transporting through the city, and they may include one in a slideshow for an upcoming Chicago Matters feature.
Transportation features begin airing Tuesday May 13 and the deadline for submissions is May 12 at 2 pm.
Stay connected to Growing Forward with our RSS feeds. The Chicago Community Trust and Chicago Matters Partners kicked off the Growing Forward series with a launch event at Access Living last month. Check out some photos from the event >>
