Quad Cities Museum Week

June 8-16, 2019

Celebrate the 5th year of this annual June  event in the Quad Cities.  Museum Week was created to celebrate our region’s museums, their amazing collections, stories, history, and their importance to communities.  In fact, with 14 participating museums to visit, there is something for everyone and for every interest.

During Quad Cities Museum Week, local museums offer discounts, special events/exhibits, or tours, making it the perfect time for families and friends to get out and explore.  Each participating museum features its own unique theme, history, galleries, and exhibits making each experience different.

You’ll also enjoy the new Scavenger Hunt this year, and of course, the Museum Geocache that is available throughout the year.

Come on out and explore!  Be sure to tweet and post about your Museum Week experiences using #qcmuseumweek.  To find out more about the event, the scavenger hunt, geocache, and all our museums are offering, go to www.qcmuseumweek.com.
