One of the perks of being a UIC student is having the city of Chicago to your disposal. Grab your U-pass, a friend, and warm scarf as you head out to the Wicker Park neighborhood this fall to enjoy all things artsy. The blue line Damen stop drops you off in the heart of one of Chicago’s trendiest neighborhoods. Wicker Park/Bucktown is home to some of the coolest art galleries, funkiest music venues, cutest diners, and it also has some of the best vintage shops. Grab a cup of something warm, and enjoy all that this neighborhood has to offer.
