Families can come to Northerly for a free outdoor adventure, including husky sled dog demonstrations, live demonstrations, arts & crafts, nature play and warm up with hot cocoa by the bonfire. Since 2005, Polar Adventure Days has celebrated Chicago’s winter wildlife and natural beauty. This cherished event now brings the joy of the season to both the Museum Campus and the Southeast Side, introducing visitors to the city’s rich ecological and cultural landscapes.
