Smithsonian Magazine Museum Day

Calendar/Event Details

Museum Day brings together museums, zoos and cultural centers from all 50 states to offer free admission to all Museum Day ticket holders. Museum Day represents a national commitment to access, equality and inclusion.

Museum Day goes beyond getting visitors through museum doors—it acts as a springboard to empower and help advance the hopes and ambitions of the public, particularly school-aged children and those in underrepresented communities.

This year, Museum Day will showcase Women Making History: Trailblazers in the arts, sciences, innovation and culture. Choose one museum to visit for free and print a ticket from Smithsonian website; you only get to choose one!
