To start, I want to say my appreciation towards the workers who came in today it is a holiday, New Year’s to be specific, I appreciate the workers who were able to create my experience. While I did enjoy this experience, and the workers were very nice this place was very small and not worth the price of $45.92. The music choice was great, and so were the interactions I experienced, but the exhibits themselves were not that hygienic and pretty small. This museum has a lot of projectors and a lot of visual displays and some are cool to say the least. While speaking with some of the employees here, I came to learn that, even though they’re here on a holiday, sacrificing the time they should be spending They are not even receiving holiday pay, which is extremely unacceptable and inconsiderate towards these workers especially because they are so kind. This workplace should treat their workers, and be more emotionally considerate towards their time and well-being, as a person who also works in customer service this is not ok and I truly feel for these workers. This pace should take better care of the museum , exhibits and their workers and maybe it would be more interesting and worth the money .

It was a cool LITTLE place... I have been to a few submersive interactive art exhibits and so far this is the most expensive and smallest one I've seen... it has some cool stuff and it's fun really fun for kids but 45 a person and it took like 45 minutes to go through with others around in the way and hard to enjoy some of it at times due to all the people because it flows in one motion and if you want some time on one thing alone to check it out good luck. A cool little place but chaotic and I didn't feel like it was worth 45 a person 30 maybe 35 sure but like otherworld in Columbus OH I wanna say is 30 and you can freerom and it's a bit biggie.. a cool place but a little underwhelming for the price was my only meh too it.

This place was so amazing. The installations were all so beautiful and the interactive ones were so much fun! They explain to you in the beginning what is interactive and what is not. Pay attention to the ropes in front of the non-interactive installations. One group didn't listen and ended up knocking over a peice of an installation. They lied saying they didn't touch anything, but my group saw they did touch it. Luckily, nothing was broken. A security guard later overheard us speaking about it. He said if the art was broken, it would've cost over $2,000 in damages. Please listen to their instructions and pay attention.

A fun interactive art exhibit. It's a little pricey for what you get, but I think it's a fun enough experience that you won't really mind. Definitely go with at least one other person, as some of the experiences really venefit from having a friend to exchange or compare reactions with. The place felt clean despite all the foot traffic and people touching things. The staff are really friendly and helpful. My experience did not feel rushed at all as no one had told me I had spent too much time in one thing. Saturday afternoon was not very busy. There was only about one or two other people in any exhibit with me.

Went here with my daughter and she had an amazing time. She is 11 and a bonafide artist. After our visit she went and made some art pieces with dots similar to Yayoi Kusama's exhibit toward the end of the museum. There were many exhibits that were very intuitive and interactive, and even the ones that you couldn't touch were still thought provoking. I would definitely go again especially if there were different exhibits for the holidays. My daughter says her favorite exhibit was the Ames optical illusion which played a trick on your eyes making it seem like the person was bigger or smaller depending on their location in the room.

My second adventure into the WNDR Museum and by far I could easily pay the price of admission just for the room where through sound and light, you become your own musically inclined beat maker lol. However the room where each step interacts with the floor causing lights to erupt, would definitely be my second favorite, and visited room. While there are so many different interactive exhibits to explore, many other photo opportunities to make memories with, to explain any further would ruin the surprises and excitement you can only experience by going.

I came here a year ago and had an amazing time. The people here create incredible immersive experiences and I would love to go back some time. The cost per ticket is definitely worth it. I highly recommend going when you don’t think a crowd will be there bc you will reeeeally want to be able to take your time. I bought our tickets online and my son and I went on a rainy Saturday morning right when they opened. There were about 6 other people waiting. The staff were very nice and explained the importance or the rules of certain exhibits. Very memorable

Interesting museum with many interactive exhibits. Took over an hour to get through and enjoyed the experience. Definitely happy I went and got to see it and got a number of good photos. 4/5 stars because while I enjoyed it, it was a one time experience. Not something that I would probably make an effort to see again. If I had a group of friends who wanted to go to it or see something interesting, I would tag along. Definitely worth seeing it once.

It was an interesting exhibit, and we enjoyed ourselves. Two adults, two teens, and a child set us back over $200 on a Monday afternoon, while there was practically nobody else there. Great that it wasn’t crowded, but we made it through the entire thing in about an hour, which didn’t seem quite worth the cost. Going out on a date night? Probably an awesome idea; taking the whole family? A bit more expensive than I would have liked.

One of the most fun and interactive museums I have ever been to. Tons of great exhibits, just make sure to charge your phone before you come (QR codes lend an extra dimension to many of the exhibits and to take plenty of photos/videos). There's also a great gift shop at the end with imaginative and some Chicago-focused products available for purchase. Don't forget to bring your sense of fun and wonder

This is a pretty cool place. They have a few interesting exhibits. Overall, I think it was a bit smaller than I was expecting. Definitely don't rush through; make sure to take time at each exhibit. I think the ticket price is pretty fair for the experience. It's a fun way to spend an hour or two if you're looking for something to do, and there are a lot of other things to do in the area.

This exhibit was absolutely amazing. Although we bought timed tickets we got in around 30 minutes after as we were told they were running behind. After we got in each exhibit had their own interactive activity and they also had a bar. There was lots of people because it was Saturday and some staff was rude. Which kind of bummed the experience after such a good time.

Smaller than I expected and a bit expensive for the experience. Loved all the interactive installations although felt I couldn’t thoroughly enjoy as many people were waiting behind us (would def recommend to opt for private event). Walked through the entire museum fairly quickly. Great place if you’re looking to take pictures for your social media!

Exceptionally unique experience!!! The interactive art was everything!!! Yes, and thank you!!! My inner child reared her little head playing with some of the displays. The display that depicts mental health was very touching and really resonated close to home. The staff was very friendly. I even got a personalized poem from a true poet! A must see if nearby.

Cool place! A bit short for the money, but it's unique and it's the city so it is what it is. The exhibits range from really fun and engaging to others that are barely worth the time it takes to read the description. Overall a good experience but probably not worth a second visit. Good place to get out of the weather.

Pretty quick stuff guided museum walk through with very interesting pieces. I recommend the VIP tickets as you get a second walkthrough. There's lots to look at and a lot of opportunities for selfies with the interactive art here. Tickets are a bit pricey which is the main detractor from how small this place is.

The WNDR Museum is a cool, interactive experience with a variety of thoughtful installations. For the cost, I do wish it wasn’t one way only & patrons were able to spend more time in certain parts. Overall, it was a cool experience, just one that is more of a one-time visit rather than a multi-visit destination like the Museum of Contemporary Art.

Fun and thought-provoking interactive art installations. You'll spend more time than you expect! Great for kids if they're well supervised. Some spaces may feel enclosed, a few aren't completely wheel-accessible. Light-based installations may strobe - be aware if you're sensitive. Will be going again!

What a fun place. I'm not sure how we missed this place on our trip planning but it was a great surprise to have stumbled across it. This is an experience similar to the ice cream museum and the color museum, but has its own twists and spins around every corner. Plan to be here a while. Must Stop

Interesting and fun kinesthetic experience. Quite interactive and dynamic. Staff is friendly and helpful. Organized and clean. I subtracted one star for the price. I paid 90 for two people. I subtracted another star because it’s way shorter than expected. We went slow and were over in 30m.

Okay, I seriously had so much fun here! It's like an interactive art museum that brings the inner children out of adults! I believe the exhibits change every once in awhile so I am excited to come back the next time I'm in Chicago! Definitely take your time walking through because you can't go backward once you make your way through an exhibit.

Cool place. However, kids will run through the whole thing in less than half an hour. Might be a bit pricey if taking the whole family, which might feel like a waste of money since kids go through it pretty quick. Overall, it's a cool place, would recomend for couples or friends instead.

Be sure to bring your camera and take your time. You have to stay on the path and move forward. Fun thing to do for all ages. My group was all adults and we all enjoyed. We took about one hour to walk through. Be sure to press the red button on the bathroom wall that says “Do not press red button.” I wonder what will happen…

Honestly I'm not sure what the hype is all about. To us this place was pretty lame. Very small, crowded with people & the exhibits were mostly basic & not entertaining. The line for the polka dot exhibit took about 20mins & again not sure whats so special about it. Definitely not worth the $92 for 2 people More

Great interactive museum. I wish there would have been a few more exhibits but it seemed like they were installing more. It was worth it to go with what they had though.

The place and atmosphere are very nice, it is definitely a stop that you should make if you visit Chicago. But, like almost all places, very expensive. The experience takes you between 30-45 minutes to walk and look at the entire museum and costs 45 per person plus tax. More

I went here to kill time. I honestly ended up enjoying myself. I did get the VIP pack, or whatever it's called, so I was able to go through twice. That allowed me to go around the people doing full-blown photo shoots. It was fun getting submerged into the various exhibits.

This interactive museum experience made me feel like a kid again! I went in not knowing what to expect but had a lot of fun throughout. The entire experience takes about an hour to walk through depending on how long you spend at each exhibit. Definitely recommend! More

We loved the interactive exhibits that incorporate practical and digital art. Absolutely recommend for if you're looking for something different and inexpensive to do in the city.

We had such a good time here. Staff where friendly and fast. Entrance fee was a little expensive. Great interactive spaces! Perfect for a group night or a date. Will be going again. The artists that contributed to this are AMAZING to say the least.

It was a wonderful experience! Went early and the crowd was not too bad. People like to take their time looking at each installation so be patient. Grab a drink at their lounge and play some games. No need to rush through the experience. More

It was not worth the money. I feel so rushed and limited through the "museum" because it is one way only. I get it when it is busy, but when I was there, it was not busy, people should be allowed to explore more. Also the infinite mirror

Fun and exciting place to explore and question what you think you see and know. I had a good time. Going on the weekend was a little busy but I still had plenty of time to do what I wanted and see what I wanted to see. It can take you a

It’s a really fun place but it’s pretty short and honestly just don’t like having to wait in lines for a single photo op just to have to move on in a minute, im sure it’s way cooler with less people but it wasn’t necessarily the best

Seeing all the hype and fanfare led me to have high expectations on the museum. But my personal experience was underwhelming. The exhibits were not as interactive as one would believe and most of the exhibits are small and quick.

Amazing place. I went for my Birthday and had a fabulous time. I want to go back before it leaves.

The museum was fun and only took about an hour. You definitely don't need more time than that to go through. Don't miss the bathrooms towards the end. That was my favorite part of the whole museum and it's easy to miss.

Really cool museum with a ton of cool light, motion, and technology-based art displays. Excellent place to take pictures, and selfies. There are QR codes around the museum which unlock AR filters on Instagram.

*** Each person has a different experience *** Don't expect too much, so you won't be disappointed like we were. I paid about $46 for 1 Adult and $35 for 1 Kid (include fee & tax). I don't think it was

The exhibit is always changing so it's definitely worth visiting. The exhibit are usually engaging and fun for you to play with. They're also pretty good for pictures so you can't go wrong with visiting

Experience was creative & engaging. Each room has a different theme & ways to interact. Sparks the imagination. Cool place to visit for fun!

It’s not as awesome as I had hoped or expected. Maybe I had expectations of a more traditional museum but it’s like a selfie photo opportunity with little more depth expressed. More

It’s just fine but if you enjoy art you will enjoy it, the trip it’s too short and not many arts to see but it was a good experience, just don’t overpay more than $30 per person

INSTALLATIONS of art, sound, lights and more. Amazing sensorial experience. The prize of entrance is average for this type of experiences in Chicago. No wait line at all.

It was ok...took my granddaughter there to experience the art of others. Need more to look at for the price. But hey, gotta check things out to know.

It was so fun, interactive museums are the best! I wish we had stayed longer. They mean it when they say TAKE YOUR TIME! More
