Best Museums 2026

 I don’t know about you, but when it’s cold out I’m constantly on the lookout for fun things to do that won’t take me out in the cold.  Fortunately, there are tons of museums to choose from! Here are a few of my faves in and around Chicago Suburban:

• 1950s Park Forest House Museum

• Matteson Historical Museum

• National A. Phillip Randolph Pullman Porter Museum – Chicago

• Homewood Science Center

•Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures Museum – Chicago

These gems make perfect weekend outings, blending art, history, and inspiration for families and culture lovers alike.
