SUMMARY:Get Lit: The Great American Heist
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin your fellow investigators for a mystery 250 years in the making! A special artifact from the museum’s pop-up Declarations exhibit has been stolen and it’s up to you to find it. Work solo or team up with fellow sleuths to decipher clues, interrogate your fellow Americans, and piece together the truth behind this crime of patriotic passion.\nWhile you investigate, enjoy beer, wine, and the night’s specialty cocktail, The Amendment, a whiskey and brandy-based drink that will have you waving Old Glory! Non-alcoholic version are also available.\nThe night will kick off promptly at 5:00pm with a reading of the Declaration of Independence as part of Sharing the Spirit of America: A Statewide & National Reading of the Declaration of Independence, with people in communities across America taking part.\nCostumes are encouraged! Think powdered wigs, waistcoats, breeches, or your boldest red, white, and blue look. Grab your friends, make your declaration, and join us for a night of literary mischief!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is 21+ event. Attendees must show a valid photo ID at the door to enter.\n\n			\n				\n										\n												\n							\n						\n						\n											\n\n					\nPrev\n1 of 1\nNext\n\n\n	\n					\n								\n					\n						\n															\n													\n					\n											Get Lit! - After Hours Events at the American Writers Museum\n																					\n									\n							\n				\n				\n\nPrev\n1 of 1\nNext\n\n				\n			\n			\n\n\nGet Lit is your way to enjoy evenings in the Loop. Meet friends and fellow book nerds for an early evening treat.
