Legacy Bricks

Connecting Generations – one brick at a time.  Own a piece of history in the making.  Support the National Hellenic Museum in a meaningful and lasting way with a Legacy Brick.

Have your name or that of a loved one engraved on a brick to commemorate the legacy of the Greek American experience and the contributions of Hellenes worldwide. Your brick will be on permanent display near the entrance of the new National Hellenic Museum under construction on 333 S. Halsted Street in Chicago’s historic Greektown.

Created especially for the Museum, Legacy Bricks will be offered on a limited basis and in two sizes. Larger bricks measure 3 x 15 inches and are available for only $5,000. Standard bricks measure 2 x 10 inches for just $3,000. Only 110 large bricks and 364 standard bricks will be created, ensuring each brick will be seen by thousands of visitors as they walk through the entrance of the National Hellenic Museum.

This is a rare opportunity to participate in a project that will forever link the past to the future. Brick by brick the National Hellenic Museum continues to build upon the present accomplishments of the Greek community. Your purchase of a Legacy Brick not only helps to support the Museum, but pays a lasting tribute to past generations for future generations to come.

Legacy Bricks offer permanent recognition for your family name, or can honor or memorialize a loved one.
