FREE Admission to Berkshire Museum for Kids Under 18 Throughout 2020!

All visitors under 18 years of age will enjoy FREE admission to Berkshire Museum in 2020 through a new initiative honoring Museum trustee and former board president Elizabeth "Buzz" McGraw. The unlimited free admissions, titled "FreeBee" tickets, were funded by donors at last summer's Wine Gala, which raised more than $300,000 to support the Museum's education programs and expand access to all children.
