Week in photos
Evanston is a busy place, and sometimes it’s hard to keep up with everything that happens over the course of a weekend. The RoundTable is sharing reader-submitted photos at the start of every week from the festivals, events, protests, block parties, full moons, sunrises, weddings, or even just pictures from the backyard. The idea is to help keep us in better touch as a community.
We’d like to see what keeps you busy on a typical Saturday and Sunday. So, please send your weekend photos to news@evanstonroundtable.com
