Chicago Museum Earns Global Recognition Griffin Museum of Science and Industry has been named among the world’s best museums by Travel + Leisure, giving Chicago another major cultural milestone and strengthening its reputation as a top tourism destination in the United States. The internationally recognized travel publication included the museum in its list of the “27 Best Museums in the World for Art, History, and Cultural Wonders,” placing the Chicago institution alongside some of the most celebrated museums globally.
