Have you heard of Grace Bagley\, Hinsdale' s own nineteenth century social reformer? This exhibit centers on her extr aordinary and recently rediscovered life. \;

\n

When Safina Ubero i and Lukas Ruecker purchased the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed 1894 Bagley House in 2021\, they didn't realize the incredible story they were about t o uncover. Soon after their purchase\, they commissioned architectural his torians Julia Bachrach and Jean Follett to nominate the Bagley House as a Hinsdale Landmark. During their research\, the duo discovered that the hou se's original owner\, Grace Bagley\, had worked closely with Jane Addams a nd made substantial contributions to reform efforts that impacted Chicago and the nation. \;

\n

With this information in hand\, Bachrach\, Follett and Uberoi set out to curate an exhibit about Grace Bagley's extra ordinary life\, which will be available to view at the Hinsdale Public Lib rary from April 30 - May 31.

\n

Join us for this exhibit opening part y\, where Julia Bachrach and Jean Follett will be present to share a bit a bout the exhibit. Light refreshments will be served. \;
