Have you ever wanted to take your family to any of Denver’s museums, gardens, or zoo, but worried about the cost of tickets? Well, Colorado residents are getting some special treatment thanks to a few generous sponsors. On certain days throughout the year, a few specific venues are offering free admission! A few of my favorites are the museums and art displays.

 The Denver Art Museum always has new exhibitions coming through. In May alone they have eleven new exhibits coming to the museum. The displays will include everything from a variety of recycled products to textiles to a combination of traditional craft and digital technology. The museum also has a number of collections that are there year round.  It has one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of world art between Chicago and the West Coast.

The Denver Museum of Nature & Science has a similar set up as the art museum in that it has a rotation of exhibits every couple of months. It also has permanent displays such as wildlife, Egyptian mummies, gems and minerals, and space odyssey.   It also has a great planetarium that offers showings on a 3D IMAX.

If you need somewhere that’s a little more kid friendly try out the Children’s Museum of Denver. It’s filled with tons of interactive activities that can keep your kids busy and entertained. They can paint, launch rockets, explore kinetics, or play with big soapy bubbles. If the museum is a hit with your kiddos, you could even sign them for a camp!

If you’re more interested in galleries than museums, perhaps you’d like to check out Denver’s Art District on Santa Fe. On the first Friday of every month the Art District opens its doors to the public for free showings!

Take advantage of these free days and experience some culture and great entertainment in Denver. Check the dates and mark your calendars!
