On loan from the Illinois State Museum, this award-winning exhibit will fill you with nostalgia for the super rad toys, cutting-edge computers (complete with dialup), and other cultural touchstones that defined being a kid in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s. Get your big hair on and grab your fanny packs because it’s going to be a rocking good time when visiting the "Growing Up X" exhibit at the Grayslake Heritage Center & Museum.

The “Growing Up X” exhibition is organized by the Illinois State Museum and sponsored, in part, by the Illinois State Museum Society.
