Description
The opening of the Academy's Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum in 1999 filled this void. The Nature Museum gave people the opportunity to create an authentic connection to nature and provided a new chance for the Academy to build on its legacy of scientific research and citizen science.
Since the doors opened, the Museum has become one of the city's most attended institutions. It is truly a place where nature and science come alive each day.
Today, the Nature Museum is known for its iconic Judy Istock Butterfly Haven and providing more hands-on science instruction than any museum in Chicago. The Academy continues to excel in all aspects of the museum experience, citizen science initiatives, compelling public programming, its outdoor Nature Trails exhibition and much more.
Join us at the Nature Museum today and make your connection to nature and science!
