Looking for something to do on a Sunday afternoon?

Now you can add “Visit the Spurlock Museum” to your leisure-time activity list. Since Sunday, September 25, 2005, the Museum has been open on Sunday afternoons from 12 to 4.

These added hours come in response to frequent requests from out-of-town visitors, Museum friends, and University of Illinois students. We thank these groups for their comments and suggestions and thank the University and our Friends for the financial support that made the new hours possible.

Have you been putting off your visit due to worries about parking? Remember that University lot D-22, located on the south side of the building off of Oregon Street, is open for free parking in the evening and on weekends. Now there’s a second reason to come by on Sundays!

Special holiday hours reminder: The Museum will be open the Saturday and Sunday after Thanksgiving, so bring the family to “explore the world.” The Museum will be closed December 24th through January 2nd for the winter break holiday.
