Haymarket House is a revolutionary community space in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood.
We host political, cultural, literary, and community events in our several events spaces, kitchen, library, and garden. We are committed to uplifting the work of writers, artists, thinkers, activists, educators, and everyday folks in the struggle for a better world.
Haymarket is proud to host a wide range of in-person and virtual events, including urgent political discussions, book launches, organizer roundtables, poetry readings, and more. We aim to bring people—in Chicago and around the world—together in community, to learn from one another and histories and practices of struggle for a better world.

Through Books Not Bars, we make our books available for free to people who are incarcerated.

That work of institution-building and popular political education has never been more necessary or more urgent. We need your help to continue to do this work.
