Mitchell Museum: Free Admission Day!

Come join us at the Mitchell Museum for our monthly Free Admission Day! On the first Friday of every month see all our exhibits, learn more about Native American Culture, and take in our newest exhibit "Cultural Identities: Mixed Blood".

The Mitchell Museum is one of only a handful of museums in the country that focuses exclusively on the art, history, and culture of American Indian and First Nations peoples throughout the United States and Canada.  In 2012, the Mitchell was named "Best Museum of The North Shore: up and Comer" by Make it Better magazine, won the Superior award by the Illinois Association of Museums and was named a national finalist by the American Association of State and Local History award program.
