I'm working on FreeInChicago, a site for finding all the free activities to do in the city.

I love Chicago and the incredible wealth of free festivals, museums, public art, music, parks, workshops, and so many more activities available to appreciate. I've found there isn't a good way to discover them though so I'm building the tool that I've always wanted. Right now I have a landing page up, have done some work on sourcing data, and I'm working towards defining a discovery interface.

Nice! I'm a fan of SF Funcheap https://sf.funcheap.com/ and always miss it when traveling to other cities. Another up-to-date local resource is something to look forward to.

Thanks for sharing! Seeing someone building something similar and being successful is incredibly energizing. I had doubts that it would be something folks would actually be interested in using.
