 Join us and support LPCS!Friday, October 18th at Gallery 1028
This
 year's event is going to be even tastier than previous years, with many
 new vendors and signature cocktails. The Tony Bondi Project will return
 with brand new music, the Ultimate Tasting Raffle has nearly doubled in
 size, and we will have opportunities for you to take bottles of wine 
home that very night! New to this year, there will be an Art Gallery 
featuring LPCS Guest and Graduate work as well. All of the proceeds will
 go toward helping our Guests overcome the financial hurdles that would 
prevent them from opening doors to their own homes.
 This event will surely sell out, so be sure to get your tickets early! Click Here to register.
 
 Some restaurants include (but are not limited to):
 Pastoral Cheese and Wine
 Bowtruss Coffee Roasters
 The Refinery
 Basil Leaf Cafe
 Viaggio
 Geja's Cafe
 Cafe Vienna
 SaiMai Thai

Kick Off Party at Prost!
Thursday, September 19th, Prost
 In an effort to raise money and also excitement for the delicious event,
 we will be hosting a Happy Hour event at Prost (2566 N Lincoln Ave.) on
 September 19th from 6PM-9PM.
 
 For only $20, you will receive 2 free drink tickets for a beverage of 
your choice, appetizers will be served, and a chance to give back to 
LPCS in a fun way with family and 
friends! At the event we will also showcase some of the Guest artwork 
that can be purchased at Taste of Fall.
 
 All of the money raised will go directly toward the cost of hosting 
Taste of Fall. Big thanks to Prost for helping us with this 
contribution!

Kick It Home, Chicago!September 21st, 9AM-12PM at Jonquil Park
 
 Mission:
 To bring together homeless shelters across Chicago in an effort to build
 relationships with one another, form a sense of teamwork and 
accomplishment between the Guests and staff, raise awareness to the 
community and break stereotypes about the homeless population, and offer
 an entertaining outlet for exercise and activity.
 
 Purpose and Goals of the League:
 Internally, the league will give the staff and the guests a chance to 
interact and develop group activity skills. In any profession, people 
must be able to work in groups as strongly as they do independently, and
 this will emphasize that importance. The guests will also have the 
opportunity to be a part of the community in an active way, with an 
emphasis on the importance of exercise and remaining healthy.
 
 Professionally, the league will allow the staff to meet people that are 
involved in various shelters throughout Chicago. This is a great way to 
build relationships and lines of communication. By developing 
relationships with other shelters, we are always reminded that we are a 
part of the same goal even if we have different modes of reaching that 
goal. We can get ideas from one another and inevitably, strengthen our 
own program by connecting to other people. What may have worked for one 
shelter can help another and what is not being utilized by one shelter 
can be passed along to the next.
