Small, evolving museum on Route 66 celebrating Illinois rock musicians — great for intimate detail shots of instruments, memorabilia and exhibit storytelling. Only the first floor is open (work in progress after tornado repairs), free admission/donations often accepted, friendly staff. Best photographed weekday mornings or late mornings for low crowds; interiors are dim — bring gear for low light. Street parking free after noon Saturday and on Sundays; check staff for access to special displays.
