Looking to reignite your creative spark? If you’ve always wanted to try your hand at acting, learn a new instrument, or make some ceramics with a kiln, you should check out the Chicago Park District’s adult education classes. They’re truly one of the best bargains in the city, as many of the instructors are working musicians, artists, and members of Chicago’s theater community with years of training that they’re eager to pass on to new students. The pricing is appropriate for a city organization that serves all people: residents usually pay from $50-$70 for a ten-week class, and most of the time that includes all materials. And if you’re 60 years or older, the price is cut in half.
