Visit the Newseum During “Museum Day” ！

presenting a Museum Day ticket. The Museum Day ticket provides free admission for two people.
Here is some information about a popular museum — the Newseum.
EVENT DETAILS
Registration: free tickets will be available for the public to download on December 15 via the
link : https ://www. smithsonianmag. com/museumday/museum-day-2018/.
Advanced registration is requested so that the museum sites know how many people to expect. If
you don' t register beforehand you may still be admitted the day of the event, but no guarantee foradmission. All are welcome to attend including children and groups.
Meeting Point #1: From 7 :45 – 8:00 some volunteers will be in the Starbucks at 325 7 th St
NW before walking 2 blocks to the Newseum.
Meeting Point #2: Outside the Newseum’s Pennsylvania Avenue entrance. The Newseum opens
at 9 ：00 am. However, as this is an extremely popular event we highly recommend arriving as early as possible, by 8 :15 if you can, to bypass the masses that will show up later in the day.
Meeting Point #3: Once the museum opens we recommend immediately heading to the 6th floor
to avoid the masses since most people start on the 1st floor. On the 6th floor, the Hank Greenspun Terrace, which overlooks Pennsylvania Avenue and the U. S. Capitol, has one of the best views in Washington, DC. After that you can proceed through the museum’ s exhibits starting on the 6th floor and working our way down. The Newseum is open until 5 :00 pm and guests are free to arrive and depart whenever they like.
