Come Celebrate Art Shay's 90th Birthday At Hideout Saturday
By Chuck Sudo in Arts & Entertainment on Mar 29, 2012 2:30PM
Art Shay turns 90 on Saturday and, over the 15 months he's shared his photographs and opinions with us here at Chicagoist, he's become even more of a treasure to us. I can tell you from personal experience Art looks forward to every Wednesday and the reaction his posts receive across the entire Gothamist network with the enthusiasm of someone one-third his age.
Art will be celebrating this momentous occasion with a small soiree at Hideout Saturday from 3-6 p.m., and he's asked us to invite any and all to attend. Much like the man himself, it's intended to be an understated affair. There will be a fun slide show of his photos over the past half century and some noshes available. Come by and say hello to who may be the oldest blogger in Chicago.
