The Jane Addams Hull-House Museum celebrates May Day with a look at the sociopolitical aspects of play in a multimedia exhibit, on display through May 1, 2015.
Opening day includes live music, games and food trucks.
“The Right to Play” explores the social movements that led to public playgrounds, the eight-hour workday and the principle that time off from work enables a more compassionate, creative and peaceful world. The latest installation in the museum’s “Unfinished Business” series, “The Right to Play” connects history with the present, and includes collaborations with artists and activists who continue to fight for fairer conditions for work and leisure.
Admission to the Jane Addams Hull-House Museum is free. It is open to the public Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.; and Sunday, noon to 4 p.m. For more information, call 312-413-5353.
