Short answer
Yes. General admission is free, but every visitor needs a ticket, children included. Reserve it online or get it at the Guest Services Desk. Special exhibitions need their own ticket.
In detail
Free does not mean you can walk straight in. Here is what to arrange before you go.
Get a general admission ticket.
It costs nothing and is required for every person, at any age. Reserve online in advance, or ask at the Guest Services Desk when you arrive.
Add a special exhibition if you want one.
Special exhibitions are ticketed separately. DMA Members see them free, but still need a reservation.
Pick a day the museum is open.
Wednesday to Sunday, 11 am to 5 pm. It is closed on Monday and Tuesday, and on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Year's Day.
Bringing a school group?
Groups of 10 or more students must reserve and pay at least two weeks ahead through the School Group Visit Program.
Tip. Members can reserve all their tickets online, exhibitions included.
