About the Event
Come check out a shrine dedicated to a diminutive woman, an indomitable "CEO" for the Sacred Heart, mother to thousands and a Chicago Saint! As in Italy, we will walk through a small set of unassuming doors into a surprisingly large sacred space - - a church disguised as one of Chicago's skyscrapers and run by faithful Franciscans who anchor Chicago’s downtown business district. Another stop will be at a small singularly beautiful jewelbox. Built by Italians and heavily influenced by Italy's finest craftsmen, thier intense love for the Madonna will be evident. We will lunch at the two level Italian market Eataly - featuring wines, cheeses, Italian kitchen gizmos, and multiple mouthwatering restaurant options. Small museum and gift shop also available.
