Milwaukee Public Museum - Kohl's Thank You Thursdays
Milwaukee Public Museum free days happen the first Thursday of every month. All visitors (excluding groups) receive free access to the permanent exhibits of MPM during Kohl's Thank You Thursday. Where else can you see dinosaurs, visit turn of the century Milwaukee, and walk through a rain forest all in the same family-friendly museum?
Betty Brinn Children's Museum - Community Access Days
On the third Thursday of each month, families can enjoy Betty Brinn Children's Museum free days. Walkup tickets are subject to availability, so make sure to reserve yours early (up to 2 weeks in advance).
Dinosaur Discovery Museum
The Dinosaur Discovery Museum is part of the Kenosha Public Museum, and displays casts of actual dinosaur fossil bones in the main gallery. It is the only museum to focus on the link between meat-eating dinosaurs and birds, one of the most complete known fossil records.
Milwaukee Art Museum
Admission is always free for visitors age 12 and under at the Milwaukee Art Museum, which showcases world-class art.
