Harvard makes admission to its art museums free
By adamg on Fri, 06/23/2023 - 10:51am
The Harvard Art Museums announced today they've ended admission fees for the general public, even if they don't live in Cambridge (Cantabrigians already had free access).
In a statement, Harvard President Lawrence Bacow said:
Art is for everyone, and the Harvard Art Museums will now be free to all visitors. This initiative ensures that every visitor to our campus will now have the opportunity to view and engage with the phenomenal collections in our care at the Harvard Art Museums.
The museums are open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday (except major holidays) and during monthly Harvard Art Museums at Night programs on the last Thursday evening of each month.
Harvard says it was able to end admission fees in part due to a contribution from the estate of David Rockefeller.

Who is sponsoring this? The Sackler family with the blood money the Harvard hypocrites bent over for?
I was wondering that, too.
But the story says it was the Rockefellers.

I wonder if this applies to The Harvard Museum of Natural History. The reason I ask is because the Glass Flowers are there and if that's not art I don't know what art is.
