On Thursday, June 25^th, as part of the three-day Every Child Thrives Festival, the public can enjoy free admission to two of Chicago’s most engaging institutions: Chicago Children’s Museum and Museum of Ice Cream.

Every Child Thrives Festival, presented by W.K.

Our hope is that families will experience the joy of exploration when they visit these museums and leave inspired to dream bigger and imagine more.

At the Chicago Children’s Museum, visitors can spark curiosity through hands-on exhibits, interactive STEM activities and playful spaces that inspire imagination, creativity and discovery for children and families alike.

Museum of Ice Cream offers a one-of-a-kind experience with sweet treats, playful surprises and the iconic sprinkle pool.
