The venue is accessible from rail, bus, and cab/uber/lyft. I have a car and can make myself available to pick people up and get them to the venue once they have made it to Chicago if they need.

If you are driving parking might be tough in the area--I can offer a few spots by my place in Forest Park if you want to put a car there and then get a ride over to the venue.
