Description:
The Billy Graham Center Museum, located on the campus of Wheaton College (25 miles west of downtown Chicago), hosts between 35,000 and 40,000 guests per year. The Museum has been in operation since 1980 and is open most days of the year including Sundays.
Visitors will enjoy a unique visual overview of the history of Christian evangelism and its influence on American society. It is a family-oriented museum, with rare artifacts and interactive displays that begin with the early history of America and climax with a powerful walk-through presentation of the Gospel message. The museum consists of 20,000 square feet of permanent and temporary exhibit space. The Museum offers a changing selection of temporary exhibits that depict the themes of missions, evangelism, and contemporary Christian art.
Recommended length of time for guests to plan for their visit is one-and-a-half to two hours. Orientation tours of the museum are available by appointment for groups of ten or more persons. This brief tour provides an overview of the Museum's exhibits, after which the visitor continues touring at their own leisure. Activity sheets are available to assist school-age children in experiencing a meaningful visit. Each visitor is given the opportunity fill out a response card in response to a multimedia message from Billy Graham.
The Museum is part of the Billy Graham Center, which is dedicated to "accelerating global evangelism." Find out more about the Billy Graham Center.
