(RE)GENERATION: A People’s Salon
When
Apr 23, 2025
6:00pm–9:00pm
Cost
Free. Registration is required.
Illinois Humanities presents the first event in its 2025 public conversation series, A People’s Salon, which centers on (RE)GENERATION and will accompany a chef-forward menu from the culinary studio TXA TXA Club.
Spring is a time for tilling the soil and making way for fresh growth – nourished by the life, lessons, and loss that came before.
How can connecting to our roots help keep us grounded, receptive, and creative as we bloom into new forms?
How do our inherited experiences position us to learn, and how will they inform the way we live into the future?
You’re invited to join Illinois Humanities at Haymarket House to contemplate these questions and more.

More About...
TXA TXA Club
TXA TXA Club is a creative culinary studio based in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois. Their team of artists, chefs, writers, stylists, and food activists is dedicated to making and sharing food through their catering program and monthly supper club that redefines hospitality and the dining scene through community and artistic collaborations.
Revolution Brewing
The change in the U.S. beer scene has undoubtedly been revolutionary. Revolution Brewing has become a leader and innovator in the industry. The evolving tastes of beer drinkers have demanded bigger flavors, more variety, and better beer. That’s exactly what you get at Revolution Brewing. Between its brewery and brewpub, Revolution Brewing produces dozens of different beer styles every year. IPAs, porters, pilsners, Belgian-style ales, pale ales, barrel-aged beers—the list goes on.
Revolution's brewery has been a labor of love. You can see it in everything they do, from the beautiful details of our mahogany bar at the brewpub, to the massive beauty of our eight 800-barrel fermenters at the brewery, to the commitment to quality in each beer that's put in a can or a keg.
