<strong>2011</strong> <strong>ANNUAL</strong> <strong>REPORT</strong><br />

The past year at the <strong>Chicago</strong> <strong>History</strong> <strong>Museum</strong><br />

has been a diverse one. It began with the<br />

celebratory July 4th premiere of the exhibition<br />

Facing Freedom, heralded the re-opening of<br />

our American history galleries, and marked the<br />

renewal of our unique Abraham Lincoln display.<br />

The year has also welcomed our presentation<br />

of the groundbreaking show on LGBT life in<br />

the city, Out in <strong>Chicago</strong>. This exhibition, one of<br />

the first of its kind in any mainstream museum,<br />

builds on three years of intensive research.<br />
