Title A name given to the resource Finnie's Balls Subject The topic of the resource Annual Halloween Masquerade Balls (multiple locations) Description An account of the resource 38th and Michigan Avenue (basement of a tavern) Pershing Ballroom--3851 S.

Guests of the ball paid twenty-five cents to attend. Nancy Kelly, who went to his first Finnie’s Ball in 1935, recalled that the event in its first years was relatively small. Until 1943, the ball was held up to five times annually at a number of different venues. As a famous female impersonator Nancy Kelly remembered, “they’d just pick out a random little shack you know. Decorate it, put up some balloons… and stuff like that. It was more homey than it is now.” http://outhistory.org/exhibits/show/queer-bronzeville/part-2/drag-balls Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived http://blog.chicagohistory.org/index.php/2011/10/finnies-halloween-masquerade-balls/ http://bilerico.lgbtqnation.com/2008/02/finnies_ball.php http://outhistory.org/exhibits/show/queer-bronzeville/part-2/drag-balls Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1935/1970 Bronzeville Public Spaces https://d1y502jg6fpugt.cloudfront.net/52878/archive/files/3c59b7df1cc0709087f97b0e7959dcfe.jpg?Expires=1774483200&Signature=KyO%7EVLps3N1bTs6phYvfMonHIRT-CNSNZ0ZlwCd8BNrhhWwGmi58D5n0ne6cwwoVrDPHs5DvP%7EYgE4QinNRMcJGtJXMG-ZHrdZ9Tbgoj6SBWxQibLfYfEVCZxBS40wZZa9x77cWbb4IxsC1PKhUvSA7CP%7EykVKFGsFb24ivYnzNLhRiUilrmMhcVCa1J87k0pO-ze%7EcMWd45QQha10V%7EcOU-ezifwnFxIA7YciS1ZMOflo%7E7wlYXMfJw8sUsa77mSf51%7EOJLIfo-W9dOBBDnCeMFk1S7q8TFvFYlmgpzKSZ4kUeFgoTcWhuZOjyujiIFN505hB0P-buGhuXULfrSxg__&Key-Pair-Id=K6UGZS9ZTDSZM 56eb97f2aedf9773ebddbb07ef8b485b https://d1y502jg6fpugt.cloudfront.net/52878/archive/files/d905642d4d61c0db483f1d990f768439.jpg?Expires=1774483200&Signature=FMSozervS8S0M0MIITY7vz8CkCdateVCNS4gmZiHGN4Y-L26%7ERnsWo1yDSH3oRNvS68s5bJdShT5E4JbBEbsg82H3UGXeq5zVepSgRL%7EKPmRb-K66zuyqMMMEgYVHgOa4klF3L7nsWbdw%7EsBChs1Dv5SiM0yYRKOYDcXIoTA4g3UA8rpp7lZidxwMttwwDbdNjrZQ6SpoVp0Db%7ENazP2J1DtW9Z-1DvsJHg6yzF7ruB980NyPk9rb-EWau2%7ErSnAAw3Ie9NYswtowGtnPnygFZmfwXDI-FrpETxOozcdd3aO-ZYjVU-DDkptnC8KM%7Eykbw9pH3MPGeZFnozg4ZKp9A__&Key-Pair-Id=K6UGZS9ZTDSZM 782a6d6570609eb9a93b0f8ede8ff371 Location-type Clubs, Discotheques, Juice Bars, Public Spaces Outdoors Venues and Retail Outlets, Recording Industry and Radio Stations, Ballrooms and Cabarets, Taverns Lounges and Lofts, Teen Scenes, Dives Diners and After Hours, Location The location of the interview Public Spaces Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Chosen Few Description An account of the resource "Beginning in the late 1970s and into the early 1980s, a group of popular teen DJs from Chicago’s south side — Wayne Williams, Jesse Saunders, Alan King, Tony Hatchett, and Andre Hatchett — played their unique brand of soulful dance music to huge crowds in packed basements, high school cafeterias and legendary nightspots, including Sauer’s, the Tree of Life, First Impressions, the Playground and the Loft, a club of historic importance in the birth and development of house music. Wayne Williams formalized a DJ collective, originally named “Chosen Few Disco Corp.” in 1977 to meet the high demand for the sound, eventually adding Saunders, King and the Hatchett brothers. In 2006, the group added its first new member in nearly 30 years, legendary DJ and producer Terry Hunter, and in 2012 welcomed DJ and producer Mike Dunn into the ranks. Along with a handful of other legendary DJs including Frankie Knuckles at the Warehouse, Ron Hardy at the Music Box and Lil’ Louis on the west side of Chicago, the Chosen Few were the DJs primarily responsible during this period for popularizing the underground dance music that came to be known as house music. In 1990, the Chosen Few DJs and their longtime friend and Chosen Few member, Kim Parham, had the idea of inviting old friends from the early house music days to a “reunion picnic” in the park behind Chicago’s Museum of Science & Industry. Beginning as a small gathering of family and friends and later dubbed the “old school picnic,” the reunion became an annual event, “The Chosen Few Picnic & House Music Festival”. The Picnic has grown into one of the largest and most highly anticipated house music festival events in the world, drawing house music fans from nearly every continent. Each year, the Picnic and its Festival parties feature music and performances from world-renowned guest DJs and dance music artists and of course, the legendary Chosen Few DJs."
