The Illinois Oil Field Museum is a developing research institution. We are constantly developing and creating new innovative ways to engage the public. Check in and see some of our new projects!

Upcoming Projects

The Oil Field Museum helps to bridge the gap between the origin of finding oil in Southern Illinois up towards modern day. Through using stories and artifacts the Museum helps to bring history to life. The museum is relatable to those of all ages and will provide interpreters to help the museum come to life.
