Donation-Based Admission

It's the season for sharing art with those you love. Make meaningful memories with family or visiting guests with donation-based admission to the Currier Museum of Art the Friday after Thanksgiving. Every visitor donation supports the museum's Giving Tuesday fundraising effort.

Here’s your brief guide for a great day at the Currier, so you can soak up the Currier experience with joy, impact, and ease.

#1: Say hi to our friendly Guest Services team.

Donation-based admission means pay what you can. Whether you give $5 or $25, your gift will be matched by our generous Board of Trustees. Our Guest Services team is here to help you have a rewarding visit. Questions about accessibility or kid-friendly activities? All you need to do is ask.

#2: Check out a new exhibition.

There’s always something new to see at the Currier.

Love everything bold, bright, and decorative? We recommend savoring the colors and textures of Embellish Me: Works from the Collection of Norma Canelas Roth and William Roth.

Want to experience something bigger than yourself? Linger before the vibrant, large-scale works in Flourishing: Paintings by Wendy Edwards.

#3: Start with the highlights.

Join a highlights tour, offered daily at 1 pm with our expert museum guides, or download the Currier’s free digital guide on the Bloomberg Connects app for a brief audio tour of the collection.

#4: Grab lunch, a glass of wine, or a sweet treat in the café.

Looking at art just might make you hungry for more. Inspire your senses with everything from flatbreads to salads to breakfast in the Tidewater Café at the Currier. Members always enjoy 10% off in the café.

#5: Find gifts for all in the Museum Shop.
