Free Admission to Harvard and Chicago Museums

The Harvard Art Museums have announced a new free admission policy for all visitors, expanding on the success of their Sunday and Thursday evening initiatives. The museums have seen a significant increase in visitation since the lifting of COVID-related policy restrictions in spring 2022, with a 90% visitation increase in January and the highest-ever monthly visitation in April. The new policy represents a significant investment in opening the museums and collections to residents of Greater Boston and visitors from around the world, and will remain in place permanently.
