How Much Are Tickets To The Philadelphia Art Museum |
The Cost of Cultivating Class (and Avoiding Ramen Noodles for a Week)
Here's the lowdown:
- The Standard Adult Ticket: $30 gets you the full museum experience. Think of it as an investment in worldly knowledge and bragging rights at your next cocktail party.
- The Silver-Haired Sage: For our senior friends (aged 65 and over), the price dips to a cool $28. Respect!
- The Studious Set: Students with a valid ID can snag a ticket for just $14. Now that's what we call a scholar's discount!
- The Wee Picassos: Good news for your mini-me's! Children under 18 get in FREE. Now you can avoid those "are we there yet?" meltdowns on the way (hopefully).
Pssst... here's a money-saving tip: General admission is Pay What You Wish on the first Sunday of every month and every Friday evening (from 5 PM to 8:45 PM). Just remember, with great freedom comes great responsibility (to not lowball the price of artistic enlightenment).
