Free at the Whitney

Every Friday evening from 5–10 pm and on the second Sunday of every month, admission to the Museum is free. Both offerings include free access to exhibitions, special programming, city views, and more. Though admission is free, tickets are required and capacity is limited. Plan your visit and know before you go. 

New! Visitors 25 and under are always free, every day.

Members always enjoy free admission and discounts, including at the Whitney Shop and newly-opened ground-floor restaurant Frenchette Bakery at the Whitney.
