FREE art museum on the University of Chicago Campus. They had a great exhibit called "Not All Realisms" showing the influence photography can have on telling a story.
Come visit here after you see Amanda William's Redefining Redlining Art Installation where she and others planted 100,000 red tulips to visually depict the impact redlining had on the Washington Park neighborhood.
Head over to Roux Restaurant afterwards for some delicious biscuits and gravy!
I had come here as a teacher for the students of cool classic during a family event where they were passing out clay. So sadly, I did not get to experience the entire museum, but what I did see and learned about Ruth Duckworth was quite enlightening to see what she had done and overcome for her art to stand proud.
It’s a small art gallery located near the Uchicago library. It’s full of fancy modern art pieces. It does not take long to see all the exhibition, but I liked it very much. Creative installments made of tar paper, plastic straws, and cards are just amazingly cool. It’s a free exhibition, so if you are near it’s a definitely a place to go.
Free for art lovers. Have to pay fpr parking though

Great FREE museum. Small but mighty! Wonderful exhibits, friendly staff, nice little coffee counter. Love Nick Caves Soundsuit, and the Mark Rothko! We take our out of town visitors here. It's a great resource for the area!
Museum was little but free. Very enjoyable. Only downside is having to parallel park. But if you can parallel park not a problem. Parking was free though.
Excellent exhibit! And free! One great thing about a university art museum, is that they're not obliged to show all the classics and organize their exhibit in the standard ways (chronologically, stylistically) as a national museum is. They …
Fantastic Hyde Park institution with interesting rotating exhibits.
