A Quirky Bridgeport Sale
The estate of a talented illustrator who came from a family of artists—this funky, talented and creative woman created and collected, supporting Chicago’s outsider art community and the Chicago White Sox. She was a bohemian who never lost her cool. The home is full of the unusual, art and crafting supplies, original art, vintage clothes and jewelry, and of course, the usual useful household suspects.
PARKING AND DIRECTIONS: Even though the signs say that it is legal to park on S. Western, the cars just race by and your car might get damaged. Park on the 3400 block of Western or on one of the side streets. For CTA users, this sale is just a quick walk from the 35th and Archer stop on the Orange Line.
