I have to say this place is amazing !!! Not just because of the exhibits they put on and the permanent ones but the PEOPLE! They work so hard to give this central Illinois some awesome exhibits ! They are executed well, so informative, and ever changing. Angie at the front desk is just our absolute favorite. She is sure to always share what’s going on, and be sure we get all benefits from our visits ! my kids have a blast but I think with my weekly visits yes weekly it has become such a comfort and I do tend to learn something new everytime. John the ceo is there often it seems and at this point he probably thinks I live in the garage I’m there so often. Truly a great museum ! Thanks for serving your community with such well thought out fun and education

Wow, what an incredible experience! My family opted to purchase the pass, which granted us complimentary entry to numerous other museums and science centers. Additionally, we received discounts on tickets to other attractions if the entry fee was free. This trip allowed us to immerse our kids in diverse cultures. From the vibrant car culture, which encompassed various subcultures like bikers, truckers, low riders, and artists of all kinds, to the fascinating planetarium show, we were captivated by the exhibits. We were so impressed that we ended up wanting to watch several more shows. However, I must admit that the lady at the counter was not particularly receptive to our requests. We wanted our daughter to participate in the scavenger hunt, but it seemed like she was having a rough day or perhaps didn’t enjoy her job. Despite this, we managed to get our daughter involved. The gift shop at the museum was also quite extensive and offered a wide range of souvenirs.

Great value! Great exhibits! Some change, while some stay the same. Definitely worth the visit for the whole family! Right now the Titanic Secret Mission is there for the first time anywhere in the world!
