Free First Saturday: A Monthly Celebration of Art, History, and Community

On the first Saturday of every month, the Museum of Art + History opens its doors for Free First Saturday, offering free admission to visitors from 11AM – 7PM. This monthly event is a wonderful opportunity for both locals and visitors to immerse themselves in Port Townsend’s rich art and history, with access to rotating exhibitions, special programs, and more.

What is Free First Saturday?

Each month, Free First Saturday provides a chance to explore the museum without any admission fee. Whether you're looking to enjoy the current exhibits, experience something new, or simply spend a relaxing afternoon in a cultural setting, it’s the perfect time to discover the museum’s offerings.

From local art exhibitions to history presentations, there’s something for everyone. The museum stays open later, making it an ideal event to coincide with Art/Walk, where you can enjoy both local art and historical exhibitions all in one evening.

A Celebration of Local Support

Free First Saturday wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of local businesses that sponsor this monthly event. These sponsors are not just helping to bring free cultural experiences to our community; they are also playing a vital role in supporting the arts, history, and local engagement. Their commitment to our town’s culture ensures that residents and visitors alike can enjoy the richness of Port Townsend’s artistic and historical landscape.

Each sponsor is a vital part of making Free First Saturday a success. By supporting the museum’s mission, they help foster creativity, education, and a deeper connection to the community. We’re proud to partner with businesses that understand the importance of art and history in enriching the lives of those around them.
