Summer construction updates
As part of the Lakefront Gateway Project, construction around the Museum campus is now underway and will continue throughout the summer.
The first phase of the project includes work on N. Lincoln Memorial Drive from Clybourn Street to Art Museum Drive. Traffic in this area will be reduced to a single lane, and visitors should expect delays during peak travel times. E. Michigan Street and Lincoln Memorial Drive will remain open during this phase. Museum Center Parking will continue to be accessible via the entrances on Michigan Street and Wisconsin Avenue.
The first phase of construction is expected to be completed by mid-June. As always, the Museum remains easily accessible by foot, bike, and public transit.
