The Downers Grove Historical Society and the Downers Grove Public Library invite you to “A Night at the Carnegie,” celebrating the Library as this year’s Historic Site of the Year. The evening will include historical displays and photographs, the unveiling of an informational bronze plaque, a presentation by local historian Lois Sterba, and hands-on activities for children. This year, we mark a special anniversary: On October 14, 1915—exactly 110 years ago—the Downers Grove Carnegie Library opened on the very site where our public library now stands. It quickly became a cornerstone of knowledge, education, and civic pride for our community. This free, family-friendly event is open to the public.
