Peoria Historical Calendar
The 2024 Peoria Historical Calendar is now available! This year’s calendar includes vintage photographs of local educational institutions, including public and private schools, and a very early photo of students at Bradley Polytechnic Institute, now called Bradley University. Education has long been an important part of Peoria’s history, and the individual history of each of the featured schools provides a fascinating look back at how each institution has evolved to fit the needs of the students and teachers, as well as the growth of Peoria over the years.
Since 1990, CityLink has produced the Peoria Historical Calendar to showcase the rich history this area has to offer.
CityLink would like to thank the Virginius H. Chase Special Collections Center at Bradley University, Peoria Historical Society for providing the photographs for the 2024 Peoria Historical Calendar.
The 2024 Peoria Historical Calendar is available for a suggested donation of $5.00 at the CityLink Transit Center (407 SW Adams) and the CityLink Administrative Office (2105 NE Jefferson). Local retailer Urban Artifacts (925 N. Sheridan) is also selling the calendar for a suggested donation of $5.00. All proceeds collected will be donated to the Peoria Friendship House of Christian Service.
