Museum Month

There’s so much to see at San Diego museums, and during the month of February the San Diego Museum Council is making it easy to visit your favorites by offering half-price admission to many of them. Simply pick up a 50% off pass at any Macy’s department store in San Diego County and bring it to a participating museum. Balboa Park houses fifteen of the most popular museums, so you may want to head there first for a full day of arts and culture in San Diego.

Though a few exhibitions may be excluded from the half-price admission, there is no limit of things to see and do in February at participating museums:
