Neighborly

Neighborly, a gift shop with three locations—Wicker Park, Logan Square and the Chicago Riverwalk—has a name that captures the essence of a community, and it stocks the products that captures it.

A big part of Neighborly’s mission is working with as many Midwest-based manufacturers as possible, offering local goods that range from kitchen appliances to artwork, with an entire section focused on Chicago-themed gifts. The shop also ensures that nothing is harmed in the process of making its items, working with manufacturers that use eco-friendly materials and are transparent about their processes.

Buddy Guy's Legends 700 S Wabash Ave Thursday January 6 2022 - Sunday January 30 2022

Most people call January "the first month of the year" or "four weeks of taking my resolutions seriously," but Chicago blues fans know that it's actually "Buddy Guy month." Throughout the month, the legendary bluesman picks up his polka-dot guitar and takes the stage during a residency at the South Loop blues clubs that bears his name.

Guy performs every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday night, with a different supporting act joining him each evening. This year, you'll see Guy paired with folks like local singer Demetria Taylor, California guitarist Leilani Kilgore amd veteran singer-songwriter John Primer. Tickets to Guy's January residency aren't exactly cheap, but witnessing a bonafide blues icon perform in his hometown is the kind of experience that's worth the dough.

“Art and Race Matters: The Career of Robert Colescott” Chicago Cultural Center 78 E Washington St (Until Sunday May 29 2022)

The Chicago Cultural Center hosts the first comprehensive retrospective of Robert Colescott, a 20th century American painter whose incisive, large-scale work took aim at racial inequities in America—among other social ills—with humor and wit. The exhibition examines Colescott's work throughout the decades, moving through the artist's stylistic evolutions from riffs on the Bay Area Figuration of the '50s and '60s to his graphic style of the '70s and beyond, as well as his role in bolstering Black representation in art.

“André Kertész: Postcards from Paris” Grant Park (Until Jan 17, 2022) 337 E Randolph St, Chicago

Explore the small-but-mighty works of photographer André Kertész, who arrived in Paris in the fall of 1925 with a camera and what was left of his savings. Over the next three years, the majority of the photos he produced were printed on postcard paper, making them easy to share with friends and benefactors. Exhibiting a collection of these small-scale works, the Art Institute's latest exhibit explores Kertész's output in the years before he graduated to international exhibitions and magazine spreads.
