When you have a world class art museum and it’s free to residents, you go. There are stellar exhibitions on the schedule, and a permanent collection that is literally in textbooks. Special exhibitions are granted ticketed, but timed to allow for crowd limit. You bring the kids on a rainy day. You visit with out of town guests. Schedule a visit since it’s free space to catch up with a friend. Lots of food options in the neighborhood afterwards. Or jump on Citibike right outside. Tourists will want to drop by the Botanic Garden once you’re in the area.

Questions & Answers

Is there a cost to the museum?

Brenda Brown | Sep 27, 2017
Lisa C | Sep 27, 2018

Special exhibits always have a cost. General admission to the museum is actually 'suggested contribution' but this is in the fine print...they certainly make you feel like you should pay.

Is it free on Saturdays?

Akosua Kyei-Badu. Skipper | Sep 27, 2018
Steven Elliott | Sep 27, 2018

The Museum is free for people 19 and under and on the first Saturday of every month from 5pm to 11pm. The reality is that because they accept public funding they my only request a "suggested donation" and so one may pay any amount from 0 dollars and up and they may not refuse to let you enter. That being said this is an institution that is well worth supporting and I would encourage you to donate as much as you can.

I renewed my subscription early in 2020 and then the museum was closed for most of the year. Why wasn't this taken into consideration for members .? In essence I'm sure many other members also feel that way.. and now you want people to do it again?

Bob German | Sep 26, 2021
Victorya Kaon | Sep 26, 2021

I would try to call them and get a refund. I feel like the museum is probably going to be open for a large majority. You just have to be vaccinated to enter the premises. Besides that if this does happen again, I would just get a refund otherwise.
