This Sunday: 46th Ward Day At The Shedd Aquarium

Remember when the 48th Ward had its Ward Day at the Shedd last month, with half price admission for all ward residents?  This Sunday it's Ward Day for 46th Ward residents.

It's the same procedure:  Buy your tickets at the Aquarium by showing an ID with an address that identifies you as a resident of the 46th Ward.  Admission prices are two-for-the-price-of-one, or half off a single admission.

SHEDD AQUARIUM OFFERS SPECIAL DISCOUNTS TO RESIDENTS OF CHICAGO’S 46th WARD
Shedd partners with Ald. James Cappleman to provide discounted admission through Ward Days program.
