Free admission at the Art Institute was a real nice surprise for me too.^
Went there yesterday evening and i'm going back later today again. I have to say that the collections, especially of european and modern art are really stellar. Loads of Monet's, as well as other impressionists, and Picassos and all the great names are well represented. The collection really beats many of the large museums in Europe. And that photography is allowed is a nice perk, which is isnt in many museums in europe.
