Yes, the banner is correct! The Mazon Creek Open House is returning for 2022! If you've been a Mazon Creek collector (or even just a passing fan), you may have heard of the Mazon Creek Open House. It was an annual affair, usually held in October at places as varied as the Burpee Museum, the Lizzadro Museum, and even the Elgin Public Library. There were quite a few events in the 1990's and early 2000's up until the last one in 2007. For much of that time, it was hosted by the Mazon Creek Project of Northeastern Illinois University with ESCONI providing essential support. Look for more information in the coming months.
