Chicago Public Library Foundation, Trivia Night, Associate Board

There’s nothing as heart-raising and adrenaline-pumping as knowing the answer to an obscure trivia question. On October 23, join us at Lagunitas in Pilsen, as teams compete for bragging rights, prizes, and the best SWAG Chicago Public Library Foundation has to offer.

When it comes to trivia FOUR heads are better than one!

Assemble a team of your finest KIAs (know-it-alls) and let the battle for the brainiest begin. Doors open at 5:30 pm so you can enjoy snacks from Bacci and Twisted Egg Roll, and the finest Lagunitas drinks (beer proceeds benefit Chicago Public Library.) Trivia begins promptly at 6:00 pm. 
Start brushing up on your factoids on the following trivia categories:

  • General knowledge
  • Chicago Public Library Facts
  • Beer Facts
  • Celebrity Trivia
