DescriptionCOLLECTIONS AND RESEARCH The museum seeks to utilize and showcase the museum's premier collections, including our unparalleled collection of Abraham Lincoln materials. The institution seeks to discover the power of original historical materials and to improve access and maximize the collections. It allows people to engage in making personal connections to history and the artifacts represented. It makes these materials available to the public through multiple platforms. The museum's 22 million-item collection is one of the most treasured history collections. It includes the second largest Costume collection in the U.S., the Hedrich Blessing photography collection, a Betsy Ross flag, and the complete library of Studs Terkel interviews. Efforts are ongoing to photograph, digitize, and catalogue the collection to make it more accessible to visitors, students, and researchers.

DescriptionEXHIBITS Provide stories in multiple languages in the exhibitions text panels along with photos, video and the historic artifacts. These enable a visitor to explore the concepts of history. The exhibits are designed, fabricated and installed so that our audience is interacting with history. The key component of an exhibit is communicating Chicago's stories to our visitors. In addition to ongoing permanent exhibitions such as "Chicago: Crossroads of America" and "Lincoln's Chicago" the Chicago History Museum presents topical exhibitions that focus on the stories of Chicago's many diverse communities. FY2012 exhibitions included "Charles James: Genius Deconstructed", "Out in Chicago" and "Magic".Description
