Because we are firm believers that every day is art museum day, we are particularly excited that tomorrow, Saturday, May 18 is Art Museum Day.  Tomorrow, approximately 180 art institutions nationwide will offer gratis entry or reduced admission rates, discounts on memberships, and other special programming, events, and deals.  This is the fourth annual Art Museum Day, thanks to the Association of Art Museum Directors.  (For our more distant blog readers, tomorrow is also International Museum Day.)  As Christine Anagnos, Executive Director of the Association of Art Museum Directors, blogged on the Huffington Post last year, it will be “a day dedicated to showing the importance of art museums in society.”

A full list of participating institutions and what they’re offering tomorrow can be viewed here.

If you can make it to the Yale University Art Gallery or Yale Center for British Art tomorrow, we’ll see you there!
