Chicago is a city that knows how to have a good time—and you can, too. Our brewery boom turned us into the country's craft beer capital, and now our distilleries are carving out their own niche in the local drinking scene. The city is now home to a handful of producers that craft high-quality spirits in small batches, often using local Midwestern ingredients. Here are just a few Chicago distilleries where you can sample locally made spirits, get a taste of luxury, and celebrate National Craft Distillery Day. Cheers!

This National Learn to Swim Day, enroll yourself for swim lessons. If you already know how to swim, brush up your skills to prepare for an adventure-filled summer.

We all need a little help from our neighbors, friends, and community sometimes. National Do Something Good for Your Neighbor Day celebrates the selfless act of aiding fellow community members in need, whether it be in the form of mowing lawns, picking up groceries, or organizing neighborhood clean-ups.

International Day of Families celebrates the family unit in all its various forms! In honor of this special day, we have gathered a list of family-friendly activities of all shapes and sizes available in Chicago this spring and summer. Take this chance to see new sights, learn new things, and most importantly, have fun!
