The Orpheum Children's Science Museum encourages children of all ages to play, explore and learn about science. Our children's museum has many interactive and engaging exhibits, classes and special events.
Our home is the Orpheum Theatre (1914), one of the finest buildings in downstate Illinois. Our facility is one of the best examples of adaptive reuse of a historic structure in the country.
