The Museum Exhibit Recommendation Quiz

Description: This 7,500 square-foot exhibition explores the natural phenomena that literally shape and re-shape our world.  Designed for families and school groups as well as individuals, the traveling exhibit winds around interactive displays and activities about natural disasters and how various cultures have responded and constructed meaning from earth’s fury. Nature Unleashed works very well for patrons who are pressed for time. Exhibition Floorplan

The Ancient Americas is a 19,000 square-foot exhibition that holds more than 2,200 artifacts, and highlights 13,000 years and hundreds of societies in North and South America before Europeans arrived to these continents.  As this is one of the Field Museum’s larger exhibitions, we would advise you set aside no less than one hour to explore the artifacts and interactive displays.  The story of American cultures continues in related exhibits, which we recommend you visit if your stay is more than 2 hours: The Alsdorf Hall of Northwest Coast and Arctic Peoples, Native North Americans, and The Pawnee Earth Lodge and the Webber Gallery. These exhibits are wheelchair and stroller friendly. Ancient Americas Exhibit web site.
