1. Hit It
The Slaps are on the road touring and taking a pitstop at Epiphany Center for the Arts. The trio is made up of former DePaul University students with a penchant for great music making. Nov. 18. epiphanychi.com

2. Snowball
The Cubs have converted Wrigley Field to Winterland at Gallagher Way. It’s exactly as it sounds, a winter wonderland with attractions like ice skating, wintertubes, a train track, and a bar conveniently located in left field. Nov. 8-Jan. 8. gallagherway.com

3. Kindling
It’s beginning to look a lot like Germany with Christkindlmarket. Little huts fill Daley Plaza and celebrate German and European tradition. There’s something for everyone, from hot spiced wine to one-on-ones with Santa. Nov. 18-Dec. 24. christkindlmarket.com

4. Traditions
It’s never too early for A Christmas Carol at Goodman Theatre. The production has been running for decades, proving to be a must-see during the holiday season. Nov. 19-Dec. 31. goodmantheatre.org

5. On Display
It’s not just any Friday at ALMA Art and Interiors, it’s Third Fridays in Bridgeport. There are more than 70 artists on display in this meticulously curated industrial loft. Plus, their neighbor is Marz Community Brewing Company. Nov. 18. almaartandinteriors.com

About Epiphany Center for the Arts

Conceived with the vision to return Epiphany to a place for people to congregate, the shuttered, historic Church of the Epiphany has been preserved and adapted into the Epiphany Center for the Arts, an iconic cultural hub “For the Good of Art, Entertainment and Events.” Thoughtfully designed, the exemplary 42,000-square-foot campus located on the artsy edge of Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood boasts three distinct venues (Epiphany Hall, The Sanctuary and The Chase House) and a stunning array of amenities. The campus also features eight galleries that serve as a platform for a diverse selection of artists from Chicago and beyond. Epiphany’s exhibitions showcase the work of women, the LGBTQIA community, artists of color, and the disability culture. Epiphany’s top priority is to curate programming that is inclusive, while providing a place established artists can collaborate with emerging ones. Epiphany’s programming serves to unite community and artists alike while “Bringing Chicago Together.” Visit www.epiphanychi.com to learn more.
