Very informative and interactive...I guess since I'm not much of a reader the numerous names of famous writers was a little overwhelming. It would have been helpful to have an audio tour of the timeline.

Such an interesting museum on Michigan Ave. So unobtrusive that it's not noticed by many. It has so many interesting exhibits featuring authors, writers and advocating freedom of speech. Also supporting students with free programs. Quite impressive.

A *museum* about American *writers*? Is this my mecca? It sure is! We are so fortunate to have this hall dedicated to words, history, and the people who create stories right here in Chicago. I will be back, with family and friends, again and again!
As one of the most unique and interactive Chicago museums downtown, the mission of the American Writers Museum is to excite audiences about the impact of American writers - past, present and future - in shaping our collective histories, cultures, identities, and daily lives.
