Description:

join the GUAB (German Undergraduate Advisory Board) for an excursion to the Christkindlmarket and the Goethe-Institut (150 Michigan Ave) in downtown Chicago on Thursday, December 1st! We will be visiting the Christkindlmarkt around 11am, with some free time to explore the market, followed by a group lunch at the market around 12, with 1 meal and 1 drink provided by the German Department. After this we will be visiting the Goethe-Institut from 1:30-2:30pm to enjoy a fun, informative, interactive cultural presentation. 

 
Participants may come and go as they please, either to just the Market or Goethe or both, but we will plan for a GUAB group to travel together there and back again. We will plan to depart from the Foster Purple Line station together around 10am and to leave Chicago for campus around 2:45 by train. You will be responsible for purchasing your own train tickets. 
 
If you are going to the Goethe-Institut: students should bring IDs, every visitor will be required to wear a face mask for the entire duration of their visit, and proof of vaccination is encouraged but no longer required and will not be checked. Students will also have to provide a signed photo permission slip for Goethe. For students who wish to just visit the market, these requirements do not apply.

The form will be open until Wednesday, November 30th at 12pm.
