Elgin Public Museum

Looking at the Accuweather forecast, we should be a go for a dry zoo presentation today -- 12:30, CHI-TOWN Chi-Town Exotics LLC! Jimmy always brings fascinating critters with him, so don't miss it -- TOTALLY FREE! Then, consider coming on over to the museum, where we have special Dinosaur visitors for the summer, plus a new America 250 MILLION Years Ago Scavenger Hunt with prizes, and a Discovery Room full of interactives. But we're not just for kids -- lots of exhibits for adults to enjoy, too! Museum admission is $3 adults, $2 kids 3-12 and Seniors 60+, and free for under 3, museum members, and Elgin Twp Senior Access Passes. Come on out and enjoy Lords Park!

Our new scavenger hunt is America 250 ... but with a natural history twist! What was happening here 250 MILLION years ago? Follow the story around the museum number-to-number, find them all, and claim a prize from our fabulous showcase! Open Thursday-Sunday 12-4 through summer (but closed July 4th).
