Pilsen Literary Walking Tour

Meet and end at the 18th Street Pink Line Stop

Stuart Dybek, Ana Castillo, and Sandra Cisneros are among the legendary living Chicago writers with strong associations to the Pilsen neighborhood. On this tour we'll place their lives and literature, along with other notable figures, in the context of this vibrant neighborhood. Stops will include the model for the fictional home on Mango Street, a mosaic that includes depictions of Castillo and Cisneros, the church featured in a classic Dybeck short story, and much more.
