THE VINTAGE HOUSE SHOW
Chicago: Home of House – www.ChicagoHomeofHouse.com
​
Chicago is the birthplace of House music. House evolved through the early 1980s and brought together Chicagoans of different races, ages, cultures, and orientations like no other medium of that day. House music was conceived and perfected in bedrooms and basements of Black and Latino youth on Chicago’s South and West Sides. Legendary DJs including Frankie Knuckles, Ron Hardy, and The Hot Mix 5 infused disco, R&B, punk, rock, and electronica to inspire teen DJ crews, the fashion industry, and creatives throughout Chicago, and ultimately the world.
​
This archival exhibition honors 40 Years of House Music from its origins to its global dominance. Fall back in time, then envision the future of this magical Black Music genre.
