Chicago Maritime Museum Debuts Two New Exhibits
May 17 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
The Chicago Maritime Museum announces the grand opening of two new permanent exhibitions on May 17, the most significant addition to the galleries since the museum opened in 2016.
“These new exhibits represent the dedicated work of our expert curatorial and exhibit professionals,” says CMM Chairman Captain Dave Truitt, “While the museum will continue to engage our patrons with fresh, temporary maritime exhibits, the new permanent additions to our South Gallery signifies the completion of a museum we opened in 2016.”
The public opening will feature speakers, light refreshments, and time to explore the exhibitions. The debut coincides with the Bridgeport Art Center’s monthly Open Studios event.
Where: Sculpture Garden space at the Bridgeport Art Center, 1200W. 35th St., Free parking in North Lot
The event is free, but there is a suggested $20 donation at the door to help support the mission, programming and operation of the Chicago Maritime Museum.
