Known as the “Gateway to the World,” Albany Park is the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in Chicago. From iconic theatre companies to museums, restaurants to parades to community gardens, our neighborhood is vibrant, alive, and growing. Families come here to take root alongside people who’ve lived here for generations. The small business is alive and thriving in Albany Park—and we love that. The story of Albany Park is the real story of America today.
The Cambodian Association of Illinois opened this museum and memorial in 2004 and is the only one of its kind in the world outside of Cambodia. Commemorating the more than 2 million people who died in the genocide during the Khmer Rouge regime, it provides a place to celebrate the survivors as well as bring the Cambodian-American community together.
