Chicago Shows This Week: 5/29-6/4
Help Chicago Show Calendar by taking the yearly survey today!
Before we get into this calendar this week, I would be so grateful if you could take the Show Calendar yearly survey. This survey helps me better learn more about who makes up my audience and what people want more of. Its crucial that I get this feedback so I can continue to make improvements and updates in the CSC newsletter, Instagram, and website. As always, thank you so much for being apart of the Show Calendar community. It means the world to me. <3 Caroline
