Mark your calendars for February 4 since 28 Sacramento area museums will offer free or half-priced admission all day. This will be the 14th Sacramento Museum Day and last year saw record-breaking attendance of more than 115,000 visitors!
Sacramento Museum Day event hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (with the last guests admitted at 4 p.m.).
And while shuttle busses will not be operating this year, several museums are within walking distance of each other and easily accessible via public transportation. Event coordinators suggest that guests plan to visit no more than two or three different museums on this day in order to allow adequate time to enjoy the experience and to travel between individual sites.
As an added treat on Sacramento Museum Day, free ice cream will be provided by Umpqua Bank volunteers (while supplies last) at three locations as follows: 10 a.m. at Fairytale Town, noon at the California State Railroad Museum and 2 p.m. at the Aerospace Museum of California.
This year the Sacramento Zoo is offering half price tickets at $5.50 for adults, $3.50 for children ages 2-11 and free for children under two; Fairytale Town is $2.25 for everyone and free for children under two years of age.
