The panel of presenters discussed the 1933 Chicago World’sFair and the Century of Progress homes that were relocated to Beverly Shores, Indiana. Not only was a wonderful PowerPoint presentation provided, but there were also paintings and hands-on student art projects, depicting the Beverly Shores’ homes.

At that time there will be music, visuals on the large silver screen, and people dressed up as the houses making their way from Chicago to Indiana.
