Fun spot to check out, really interesting exhibit on sustainable food sourcing going on currently. I felt the $18 admission for was pretty steep for a local college art museum… that being said proceeds go toward art education which I am all for! Support local.

Came here last Saturday with a relative to check out the Rafael Blanco murals exhibit. We were greeted by a friendly, helpful lady who took our money for admission and talked about what exhibits were on display.

This is not a large art museum, though the galleries they have are spacious and immaculately clean. The murals exhibit had displays in several galleries and was interesting, fun, and amazing. We certainly took the time to enjoy this big, colorful, exciting exhibit.

They have another exhibit which is a model of a modern old time house from years ago. Art and furniture were on display and this was certainly interesting and eye opening as it’s something I never knew about. This was a very cool exhibit to say the least.

There was another gallery that contained an exhibit of art work from the museum’s members. A lot of well made, fun, interesting and exciting pieces of art made in so many different ways. Some art was painting, some watercolors, some sketches, some tile. Some of these art pieces were for sale, though the costs were not at amateur prices.

Overall a great experience. Best to spend at least 30-45 minutes for the best experience and enjoy. I’ll return the next time I’m in the area.

This is a really great small Chicagoland museum. I have visited several times to see specific exhibitions. Some of them, like the ones featuring the Chicago Imagists and the Hairy Who, have been spectacular, as good as what you'd see at the Art Institute. It is not very large place, you can see everything in an hour, but if you see an exhibit that interests you, I highly recommend you visit.

It’s a very nice museum space with plenty of light and glass. I visited Picasso exhibit and honestly expected a lot more for a $18 dollar entrance fee. Very few Picasso pictures or objects on loan unfortunately. I think if the price was lower, it would have been more reasonable considering the number of rooms and objects. Interested to see what other exhibits they have in the future, hopefully something a little better curated.

Went to an event here last night. The volunteers and the bartender were super nice, but the receptionist was kind of rude, lol. She was saying goodbye to other guests but ignored me.

This small museum has the most incredible and surprising exhibits. From modern icons like Picasso to local legends Hebru Brantley and Sentrock, they are truly thoughtful when curating unique exhibits that showcase Chicago’s art scene. The exhibits are typically a full concept with a unique perspective and story, such as the latest Picasso that showcased the progression of his rarely seen linocut work, or Sentrock which displayed interactive installations, and animated work that tied into the large scale paintings. I always look forward to seeing what original shows they lineup next. Plus, they often have limited edition prints, sculptures, and other merch that is exclusive to the museum. If you’re a fan of current and modern art, it’s definitely worth a trip even if you’re in the city.

I really enjoyed my visit at the Muesuem. Found some of the exhibits very interesting. The box with the sky had me baffled . Most interesting piece. The part about the lay out of the home was interesting too. Very nice Muesuem. Highly recommend
