About this event
Free admission for everyone plus extended summer hours to nine in the evening, which makes this one of the longest free museum days in the city. The Fifth Avenue building sits opposite Central Park's northern end, and its exhibitions on New York housing, activism, photography and street life reward a slow, unhurried visit.
Why we picked it
Eleven hours of free entry with a late close, opposite Central Park.
Free entry
"Wednesdays - Free for everyone", excluding groups of 10 or more. The museum lists "Open Late on Summer Wednesdays until 9".
