November is National Native American Heritage Month and a perfect time to look into the origins of the roads and paths we walk on. Arlington Heights didn't always have several highways and four-lane roads, accommodating thousands of motorists and commuters daily. It began as indigenous land and the paths of native people laid the groundwork for how we travel today. From desire paths to Northwest Highway, genealogy and local history librarian Eddie Kristan will cover the roads and highways of Arlington Heights. 

We strive to host inclusive, accessible events that enable all individuals, including individuals with disabilities, to engage fully. To request an accommodation, please call 847.392.0100, text 847.665.1491 or email us at accessibility@ahml.info
