Museum Day 09-26-- Free Admission
Posted by Michael Murillo on Sat, Sep 26, 2009 at 6:30 AM
We have a lot of museums in the area, but they’re not all cheap to visit. Admission costs vary, but even the less expensive admissions add up if you’re taking the family. Even if you want to go, sometimes the budget doesn’t allow taking everyone to an exhibit.
But you can’t use that excuse today.
You see, today is Museum Day. You don’t have to buy card for anyone, though. You can, however, enjoy free admission to a number of local venues. You’ll save a lot of money and learn something interesting by taking the day and going to your favorite local museums—or visiting ones you never had a chance to see before.
Here are a few (not all) of the local museum participating in the program:
* Great Explorations Children’s Museum—1925 4th St. N. Regularly $9.
* The Pier Aquarium—800 2nd Ave. NE, Ste. 2001. Regularly $5 or $2.50 on Sundays.
* Florida International Museum—244 2nd Ave. N. Regularly $8.
* Salvador Dali Museum—1000 3rd St. S. Regularly $15.
* Ybor City Museum State Park, 1818 E. 9th Ave. Regularly $4.
* Tampa Bay History Center, 801 Old Water St. Regularly $12.
If a family of four went to the Tampa Bay History center and the Salvador Dali Museum today, they’d save a total of $108 on admission costs. At that rate, why not bring friends as well? Bring anyone you can think of and make a day of it. It won’t cost you anything to visit these local museums, and it’s a fun way to spend the day.
But remember, it’s Museum Day, as in just one day. Tomorrow prices go back to normal, so get going. For more information, visit www.smithsonainmag.com and look for the Museum Day button.
