I really enjoyed some of the exhibits. Some of the displays were not well marked, so I was guessing as to what they were. Also the descriptions on the wall are rather dated, with a little too much text (and tiny fonts). But overall we enjoyed ourselves. I do wish the museum hours were less restrictive. Being closed on Sunday is especially odd, considering how many visitors would visit more.
This is a great museum of primarily southern Illinois history. Not an overly large space but the creative and inspired work of curated displays means that this museum does not suffer from cramped surroundings due to trying to display too much of their collections. If you will be visiting check out the North hall's Swedlund photography including pics from the region. They are incredible. Artwork from the Depression era can be found in the South hall. Allow yourself enough time to get through both halls. You won't be disappointed.
This museum has a very good collection of art and items with historical significance. I highly recommend it for locals and visitors alike!
Great pokestops beer here
