Celebrate Museum Day with a free ticket this Saturday.

Hosted by Smithsonian magazine, the annual day encourages a visit to a museum with free admission to any of the participating cultural institutions.

Seventy-two Florida museums are listed on the website. In Palm Beach County, there’s just one: the Boca Raton Museum of Art. Get your ticket on the Smithsonian magazine's website.

If you’re willing to venture outside of the county, here are some of the nearby museums:
