Smarty Pants has been invited to perform his award-winning balloon twisting at a lot of birthday parties in his career for guests of honor of every age. Yup, lots of 1st birthdays. A few 70th birthdays, a handful of 80th, even one 100th birthday for my own uncle Morris.. But on March 4th, 2012, I’ll be entertaining with balloons for a 175th birthday party! Yes, I said 175 years old!

So who’s the party for? It’s the city of Chicago! Incorporated as a town way back in 1833, the Chicago History Museum is throwing the Windy City a big birthday bash this Sunday, March 4th 2012 and Smarty Pants will be doing balloon entertaining from 1 pm to 4 pm.

For more information, see the official Chicago History Museum events page.
