This shop is a wonderful place to buy gifts that you can be sure come from Illinois. I love craft fairs, but what happens when the weather gets cold? Here is the answer for the Chicago shopper. The Illinois Artisans Shop is located in the Thompson Center on the second floor. More than 500 Illinois artists are selected to display and sell their wares here. This is an amazing place to look around; they carry ceramics, photography, textiles, baskets, paintings, and more. Kudos to the state for sponsoring this wonderful store.
