A Treasure Vault of American Broadcasting…

“There is really nothing quite like the MBC anywhere in the world. Visitors will discover both the expected and the unexpected. A Smithsonian-like presentation of historic moments in broadcast history…visitors are confronted with a mind-boggling array of collections that capture the important moments in broadcast history and life in America from the 1920's to the present. The museum is not just about the past, its sophisticated up-to-the-minute technology features a television and radio studio. The MBC also offers visitors an opportunity to create their own DVD's where they can conduct interviews, anchor an ABC-7 newscast or make an audition video.” ~ Carole Kuhrt Brewer, Chicago Now
