All rental proceeds contribute to the ongoing efforts of the Chanute Aquatorium Society in preserving this architectural gem. Located at 613 S. Lake St. in Gary, Indiana, the Aquatorium invites you to experience the legacy of flight and the inspiring stories of the Tuskegee Airmen in a setting that is both captivating and meaningful.
