The Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary art showcases stone through nature, science, and creativity. Founded by collector Joseph F. Lizzadro, Sr., the museum features a vast collection of Chinese jade and hard-stone carvings, animal dioramas, mineral specimens, and gemstones. Originally opened in Elmhurst in 1962, the museum relocated to Oak Brook in 2019.
