Sideshow Gallery is a one-of-a kind curiosity shop & art gallery located on Western Ave in Chicago. When you enter the doors of our store you will find antiques, oddities, metaphysical items, gifts & all things strange & unusual. We are obsessed with the occult so you will find many things relating to magic, like crystals & candles. The shop also stocks witchcraft supplies for witches of all levels. Sideshow offers classes ranging from tarot to taxidermy, hosts markets, pop ups & events throughout our beautiful space. We like to say we have a morbid curiosity with a sense of humor.
