I have wanted to visit the Museum at the Art Institute of Chicago as long as I can remember. Well, I was highly disappointed. Not only did the American Gallery cost an extra $8, there was a private event in the Chicago Stock Exchange Trading Room so I couldn't see that either. There were a few good parts, I loved most of the European, Impressionism, Post impressionism and Architecture galleries. I loved all of the architecture by Alder and Sullivan, they were just amazing. The food in the Cafe was actually pretty good too. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. I will definitely go back to see the galleries I missed, but would suggest that if you're planning a trip to Chicago, you wait until their construction is finished next year. The picture below is of Two Elevator Enclosures Grilles from the Chicago Stock Exchange that were designed by Alder and Sullivan.
