We drove from Madison to Racine for the glass exhibit. It was our first time visiting Racine and…read moreRAM (Racine Art Museum). Plenty of parking and there was a big garden with a few sculptures. Admission is free and there were lots of children's art work in the hallway. The actually glass exhibit was very small like inside a small room with less than 10 pieces of glasswork. Had to say that we weren't impressed especially the almost 2 hours drive. However, if you live in Racine, it may be worth to swing by.

First we went to the downtown location of RAM not knowing there were two locations. After paying for parking and to enter that museum we found out that watercolors were at this sister location. (We did tour the main museum and really enjoyed the special Easter peep contest entries - lots of fun). We eventually made it back out of downtown to this location with free admission and free parking. We enjoyed the watercolor exhibit itself - some great works but the gallery and facility was a bit underwhelming and small but for the price...

The civil war museum is in the same lot. We stopped there too but the woman at the front said it was a lot of reading and didn't really recommend it for my 6 year old.

There is a main gallery with a couple dozen dinosaur skeleton casts (no real fossils), the main point of which is to illustrate therapod evolution towards modern birds. Also on the first floor are a series of kid-oriented stations to describe how fossils are formed and then how they are uncovered by paleontologists. On the lower level are a children's play area (big rug, toys, books, small tables and chairs); several display cases containing small fossils; and three large windows looking into the paleontology lab. During our visit, there was a triceratops skull in two large pieces laid out on the lab table closest to the windows. Very cool!

This museum pays particular respect to the Midwest states that fought for the North. It consists of 2 floors with the bottom floor being the main museum and special exhibits located upstairs. The dioramas and exhibits in the museum were all well done and had very good documentation. There is also a short movie shown every hour in the middle of the museum. This museum is constructed in the round so make sure as you go around it, you see every section. I would budget 2 hours to see it all. There is an admission fee and a gift shop along with plenty of free parking.

When you reach proximity to some of them, a recording will play. They didn't move around (so it's not too bad if you don't like dolls or mannequins or animatronics). Staff were calm and helpful and made it enjoyable. Highlights include an immersive 360 degree movie in the center of the museum that plays at the top of the hour (every hour? Not sure): it's somewhat intense and full of drama, but it's only 10 minutes long. It's called Seeing the Elephant. Another is a train car (at the start of the war) where you sit next to mannequins and they tell you their tales of being turned away for service, their hopes for a good outcome of the war, and the like. Yet another is the paddle boat at the end of the war, where the tales of the mannequins are more grim and the massive human cost of war (assassination, instability, death and dismemberment) pervades. The whole of the main exhibit is from the perspective of the Midwest, so it's rah-rah Wisconsin, Ohio, etc. It's unique. I don't know if everyone would like this, but the 2024 admission to the main gallery was $9 ($5 for residents), and I thought it was well worth it. I'd recommend it, even if I might not necessarily return anytime soon.
