You Can Day
Sunday 31 January
11am-4:45pm
Why do we have this day? The mission of the Museum is to be for all. We are keenly aware of the economic statistics of our community and our region, and we are conscious of the stresses and challenges faced by many. We also deeply believe that art cultivates empathy, that visiting an art museum can inspire and delight, and that exploring new art and new ideas can enrich lives. We have this day so everyone can benefit from the art and the artist’s wisdom.
While admission to the Museum is $15, on Pay What You Can Day, you will choose the amount you pay based on your ability and capacity. Any amount, or no amount, is welcome, and we hope that you will be as generous as you are able to be. Your support allows the Museum to serve ALL.

- Restrooms will be cleaned at least every 2 hours.
- Frequent touch surfaces will be regularly wiped down throughout the day.
- Cashless payment options, including debit cards, credit cards, are preferred to minimize contact.A
