The Dana-Thomas House will return to regular hours of operation after a re-opening ceremony at 1:30 PM on Thursday, April 23, 2009. Following the ceremony, walk through tours will be available. Illinois Governor Pat Quinn is scheduled to speak at the re-opening of the site.
Thanks to all those who worked to bring change in the Illinois Governor's office, and to those who work tirelessly - regardless of political factors - to advocate for the immeasurable value of cultural assets in Illinois such as the Dana-Thomas House. This important "sister site" to the Martin House Complex is once again accessible, having overcome great obstacles raised by the turbulent economic climate and government's short-sighted response to the same.
