Museum Tours
Tours of the Doctor Small Home and the Taylor One-Room Schoolhouse are available upon request during your visit to the museum campus. If your group consists of more than five people, we ask that you call ahead to book a tour with our staff.
Any questions regarding tours can be emailed to kankakeecountymuseum@gmail.com.
Research
Whether you need information on the factory where your grandfather worked, the name of a family that lived at a particular address in 1947, help with a school report, or a photo of a Kankakee landmark to display in your home or office, our researchers stand ready to help. Email or call to make an appointment with our Research Coordinator, Jorie Walters.
