Get Your Free Culture Right Here

If you’re finding yourself short on culture and shorter on cash, you’re in luck this weekend. Saturday is Museum Day, where you can get into a gaggle of local museums gratis. Sponsored by Smithsonian Magazine, the day is a way to spread art and history around and “bring Americans together,” we’re assuming in queues. All you have to do is sign up on the site to get your free pass (good for you and one guest—only one pass per household allowed) and make a list of places you’d like to see. The line-up has changed from past years (Franklin Institute is sadly not participating this go-around), but the selection for Philly is still nice and well-rounded: some possible stops include the Rosenbach, the Insectarium, and Penn’s Museum of Archeology and Anthropology. Ah, Joyce, cockroaches, and mummies. Now that’s a perfect Saturday afternoon.
