Thank YOU!!!

What a perfect day for a Peony Party last weekend. Over 100 guests came out to support the Schweikher House while enjoying peak peony blooms and long time resident, Alex Langsdorf's, birthday. We' so grateful to our friends, supporters, and sponsors that help make the Schweikher House a little less hidden but even more of a gem.

Thanks to Urban Street Group, Schaumburg Bank & Trust, Schaumburg Park District, Schaumburg Community Garden Club, and our incredible volunteers for supporting our event!

Professor Dan Wheeler FAIA facilitated a visit to our unique early Modernist house where students toured the spaces and then enjoyed drawing time.
