Tickets

Adults about $19-22

Address

220 E Chicago Ave, one block east of Michigan Avenue

A big building fills the block and contemporary art hangs across its floors. Shows change often, so each visit looks different. Out back, the terrace sculpture garden puts the art and the city buildings in one frame. It stays open until 9pm on Tuesdays, which suits an evening visit.
