An unexpectedly charming and intriguing place. The museum is well thought out, well put together, educational and inspiring. The staff was very friendly. We found the small gift shop was spot on with quips, puns and great trinkets.
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.
