Museum Day: when and how you can visit the sights of the USA for free

Музеи знакомят посетителей с богатой и очень интересной историей, искусством и наукой, но цена на входной билет может быть достаточно высокой. Не стоит грустить — после длительного перерыва в связи с COVID-19 День музеев снова вернулся. Как бесплатно посетить многие музеи США, рассказало издание USA Today.

On Saturday, September 18, over 1000 museums, zoos and cultural centers in the United States will welcome visitors free of charge as part of Smithsonian's 17th Museum Day.

«Компания хочет отпраздновать открытие музеев после их закрытия в прошлом году из-за пандемии COVID-19. Тема этого года «Познакомьтесь с Америкой» представляет собой возвращение и возрождение разнообразного культурного опыта страны», — сказала Эми Уилкинс, директор по доходам Smithsonian Media.

In 2019, 324 tickets for the event were downloaded, bringing over 922 visitors to the museum.

How to get your free Museum Day ticket

To receive a ticket, people must select a museum and download a ticket from the Smithsonian magazine website. Tickets will be available from August 18th. You can only upload one ticket to one email address, but each allows two people to enter.

Tickets may be free, but keep in mind that many participating museums will have different COVID-19 precautions in place this year. Please visit the museum website before visiting.

Which museums can be visited for free on Museum Day

Ожидается, что в мероприятии примут участие более 1000 музеев, поэтому посетители обязательно найдут тот, который им понравится. Темы варьируются от воздуха и космоса, искусства, детей, общей истории, естествознания — и все они готовы к потоку нетерпеливых посетителей. Полный список музеев можно посмотреть на Smithsonian magazine website.

The Smithsonian already has museums open to the public free of charge every day, such as the National Museum of Natural History, the National Air and Space Museum, and the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

Museum Day provides an opportunity to visit other unique places that are usually not free.

And the list doesn't end there.

«Большинство музеев полагаются на средства от властей и пожертвования, поэтому мы действительно с нетерпением ждем возможности привлечь внимание и поддержать эти культурные учреждения», — сказал Уилкинс.

This year's event is sponsored by Quaker Oats Co., which is distributing 100 Smithsonian science kits through September 15th.

Guided tours of the virtual museum and other prizes will also be available. Participants can take part in the competition for QuakerBacktoSchool.comfor a chance to win.
