🕙 HOURS UPDATE: The Durham Museum will be CLOSED on Thanksgiving Day (11/28). Have a great holiday! 🕙

The Durham Museum Open Free of Charge on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

The Durham Museum is proud to offer free admission to the community on Monday, January 18, 10AM-4PM, to celebrate the Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Join the museum as we highlight MLK’s legacy and message of peace, tolerance, community service, and an inclusive, hopeful future for all.

In addition to the museum’s permanent exhibitions, guests will enjoy an interactive scavenger hunt, contribute to a community art project, view a screening of the famous “I Have a Dream” speech and have a chance to enter to win a museum membership for the year.

There is no fee for admission, but advanced registration is required, and space is limited. Each person visiting must reserve a ticket in advance online or over the phone. This allows us to safely welcome guests and keep within our guidelines for capacity of our venue. This is the only method for admission at this time. Visit www.DurhamMuseum.org or call 402-444-5071 to register. Because capacity is limited, we ask that members and frequent visitors consider allowing those who may not otherwise be able to visit the museum to enjoy this opportunity.

As a reminder, guests (ages 5 and over) are required to wear face masks while visiting the museum.
