Neighborhood Tours

Ukrainian Village

A small but culturally rich neighborhood, Ukrainian Village is located on Chicago’s northwest side. This tour highlights Kasia’s Deli as the legendary local business, Shokolad as the indulgent local eatery, Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art as the marriage of heritage and artwork, Ukrainian National Museum for community preservation, and Saints Volodymyr & Olha Ukrainian Catholic Church for breathtaking architecture and spirituality. To get to Ukrainian Village from the University’s campus, take the Green Line towards Harlem/Lake and transfer to the Blue Line (towards O’Hare) at the Clark/Lake stop. Get off the Blue Line train at Chicago and walk towards Chicago & Milwaukee. Take the 66 bus towards Austin and get off at Chicago & Oakley. This tour can be completed as a self-guided walking tour, or virtually from the comfort of your home.
