Claire found out that a new, fun spot was opening in Chicago and she made sure I got tickets ASAP. I'm so glad she did.

It's called Color Factory – the first one opened as a temporary exhibit in San Francisco and now we have a permanent one in the Willis (nee Sears) Tower. 

"Color Factory is a pop-up interactive art exhibition with brightly colored room-sized installations, each themed around the concept of color."

We took Claire's friend, Lily, along and we went on a Tuesday afternoon so it wasn't very busy at all. It's essentially all about taking selfies in an interesting space. A lot like the Wow Museum we visited in Zurich. Claire is clearly of the age and generation that is comfortable with this stuff. They had so much fun!

Here I am trying to not look uncomfortable taking a selfie (forgot to smile).

All the employees were really fun and they wore different colored overalls.

The gift shop was full of the most fun colorful stuff – even brightly colored sodas.

Claire was ready to go back immediately.
