The parking is a bit limited but don't worry, there is an overflow lot which we used this weekend. The first time I came was for the National Parks Quilt exhibit, it was sublime. This past weekend I attended the last day of the Frida Kahlo's Garden exhibit, magnificent. The staff greets you like you are a long lost friend. They have activities for kids, super clean bathrooms and wonderful seats for when you need to rest. Plus free coat check hanging area. Perfect!

She was brave & talented, even after so much suffering in her life. I love that they had live plants from Mexico here that Frida had in her garden in the blue house. Her paintings all tell a story. There was no entrance fee for this exhibition. I'll definitely be going back here for other exhibitions in the future!

Since there was no Yelp review I wanted to make sure you knew where you were going. It's located in Humboldt park on North Avenue next door to Señor Pan.

Pay to park on the street but I found free parking on a side street.

The children LOVE her and her staff! Dr Perry has helped me and my family through some really emotionally charged times that really had an affect on my son's academics.

Very grateful for unique services she offers that deals primarily with academics but takes the child's emotional and social needs into account, too.

Carol is completely knowledgeable about what the school's obligations are, what our rights are and is able to communicate very convincingly and strongly on our behalf. We would not be where we are today with a an IEP that truly addresses our son's needs without Carol. Her work has had a profound impact on our son's life - she's been amazing getting us the resources and accommodations he needs to be successful. We bring her to all of our meetings - not all of her clients do - but I wouldn't THINK of going into a meeting at school without Carol.

The below is my experience, and my opinion when I used Educational Advocacy & Consulting…read more If your reading this, you probably have some kind of problem with your child, and or the school system your in, I only hope the best for you, as parents and caregivers our job is to prepare the child for the world, and for the child to be self sufficient . They will grow up faster than you know. All school systems are different so my experience may be different than your own. My little guy was getting kicked out of his second school, and he was only in the 1st grade. He has a DX of AD/HD and learning disabilities . I knew he was in trouble, I have sat in IEP meetings before, listening to all they had to say, and I was not buying their answers. I was not going to let my little man be warehoused until he aged out of the system, with no future, because he had not learned anything. So I called EA&C. The short answer was, they got him in a better private school, and he is doing well, and learning. His future is brighter because of this. Before I called EA&C I felt like I was in a foreign land, even though I had studied the rules, I still did not know them. EA&C evened the playing field. EA&C are experts in the field of educational advocacy , and of what can be done and what can't be done. Don't be surprised if you hire EA&C, to go to IEP meetings, the school system will have a new member on their team too, that new member being a "school attorney" Make no mistake,( for me) even when you call EA&C you still have to fight, for your child. They will do a lot but you still have to keep swinging. The school administrators may and probably will end up disliking you , because you called in the heat, and rocked their boat. I guarantee you, none of them administrators and school professionals will be at your child's graduation, when they age out of the system, with a sub-par education. The only thing I did not like about EA&C was they were poor in answering emails, that said, I would hire them again. Semper fidelis Stay in the Fight
