Smithsonian Magazine Museum Day

The National Museum of Industrial History will open its doors free of charge to all Museum Day ticket holders on Saturday, September 18, 2021 as part of Smithsonian Magazine’s annual Museum Day, a national celebration of boundless curiosity in which participating museums emulate the free admission policy at the Smithsonian Institution’s Washington DC-based museums.

Museum Day represents a nationwide commitment to access, equity and inclusion. Over 250,000 people downloaded tickets for the last event, and Museum Day 2021 is expected to attract more museum-goers than ever before.

Museum Day tickets will be available for download at smithsonianmag.com/museumday beginning in August. Visitors who present a Museum Day ticket will gain free entrance for two at participating venues on September 18, 2021. One ticket is permitted per email address.
