Locks and Dam Way, Alton, IL 62002

The National Great Rivers Museum warms up February 18 with the 2nd annual Ice Jam at the Dam!

The winter-themed festival promotes outdoor recreation and celebrates all things icy along the river with live music, open dam tours, live animal programs, warm food and beverage vendors, Park Ranger campfire programs, educational booths, and more! Watch for American bald eagles hunting on the river, see how barges and boats use the locks system, and spend the day with family and friends learning about the great rivers and the creatures that call the region home.
