“As a civic institution, we acknowledge our responsibility to rebuild the volunteer educator program in a way that allows community members of all income levels to participate, responds to issues of class and income equity, and does not require financial flexibility to participate,” said Stein, who was hired by the museum in March. “Rather than refresh our current program, systems, and processes, we feel that now is the time to rebuild our program from the ground up.”

That, however, was before the highly contagious delta variant of COVID-19 became dominant across the country. Since then, cases of the illness have again spiked in Illinois and elsewhere, and it’s become clear that even vaccinated people can spread the virus and should be tested when sick or exposed to COVID-19.
The Sheridan Road property is listed in the real estate agents’ private listing network, meaning that details on it are not available to the general public. Set behind gates, the two-story neo-Georgian mansion has five full bathrooms, two half-baths, views of the lake from almost every room, a designer white kitchen with a butler’s pantry and a walk-in pantry, primary bedrooms on the first and second floor, a great room with a two-story ceiling, two wine cellars and an attached three-car garage. It sits on a 0.71-acre lot.

Rising costs and shortages of building materials and labor are rippling across the homebuilding industry, which accounted for nearly 12% of all U.S. home sales in July. Construction delays are common, prompting many builders to pump the brakes on the number of new homes they put up for sale. As building a new home gets more expensive, some of those costs are passed along to buyers. (AP Photo/Elise Amendola) (Elise Amendola/AP)
