Literacy Chicago’s Post

We look forward to seeing you tonight for this awesome event!

In his latest blog post, "Art Is Only Abandoned, Never Finished" award-winning chef and author Alan Lake reflects on his experience with unfinished projects, particularly a book of food profiles. He also writes about the importance of deadlines and the challenge of perfectionism, sharing a powerful story about Hacen - an immigrant who learned English by coming to Literacy Chicago nearly daily for a year. 🗓📚 Take a deeper dive through Alan's thoughts by checking out his "500 Words" blog series - https://lnkd.in/gRHGnRNf Thank you, Alan, for highlighting Hacen's story! #LiteracyChicago #LiteracyChangesLives #OurStoriesMatter #ESL #ChicagoAuthors
