Inquisitive minds need to be fed and the Oak Park Area is here to please. Hungry for a “Galaxy far, far away”, try the Cernan Earth and Space Center in River Grove. Sky watch programs and laser shows feed the need and leave you wanting to come back for more. The Oak Park Conservatory is where you’ll find out where those oranges and mangos you crave come from and if you aren’t sure what you are hungry for, try the Wonder Works Children’s Museum. Wonder Works was created to explore the cravings of young minds and feed the creative and curious.
