Peoria Riverfront Museum, Interactive museum in downtown Peoria, United States.

The Peoria Riverfront Museum spans 87,000 square feet and contains five major galleries featuring art, science, history, and achievement exhibitions.

The museum opened in 2012 as a successor to the Lakeview Museum of Arts & Sciences, which had served the community since 1965.

The permanent collection includes 18,000 objects spanning American decoys, fine arts, decorative arts, and natural science specimens from the region.

Visitors can explore the exhibits, watch shows in the 70-foot Giant Screen Theater, and attend presentations at the 40-foot Digistar planetarium.
