Jane Addams Hull-House Museum Presents New Exhibition

The newly renovated and reformatted Hull-House Museum opens up the never-before-exhibited second floor of the Hull home and recounts never-before-told stories of Hull-House residents and immigrants. Organized by room, each door opens a new collection of artifacts, photographs, and convicting stories that are sure to make the history of the walls come to life.

The Jane Addams Hull-House Museum serves as a dynamic memorial to social reformer Jane Addams, the first American woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize, and her colleagues whose work changed the lives of their immigrant neighbors as well as national and international public policy. The Museum preserves and develops the original Hull-House site for the interpretation and continuation of the historic settlement house vision, linking research, education, and social engagement.
