About this activity

Are you excited to see some of the greatest works of art in the world? What if we told you that the Art Institute of Chicago is one of the world's great art museums, with a collection that spans centuries and from all around the globe!

A visit to the impressive collections of this Chicago icon will see you face to face with characters of American Gothic, and the atmosphere of Nighthawks. There are works by Vincent van Gogh, as well as Pablo Picasso, and even Monet.

Kids will be surrounded by works from some of the most inspiring and famous painters and artists in the entire world, and it's a particularly great experience for any creative students or art students who will be in their element.

As well as the permanent collection, the Art Institute of Chicago features rotating exhibitions so you can always go back and see something new. One exhibition might focus on Japanese prints, or there might be a Rembrandt showcase. One month might focus on textiles, and then the next you might be exploring African art

So much more than just "art", a visit to the Art Institute of Chicago is a day out filled with history, and cultures from all over the world, and creativity, and plenty of classes and workshops for the family!

It's time to be inspired!
