Thank you for making Museum Day 2009 such a huge success! Please check back for information on Museum Day 2010.
Until then, check out our participating museums and upcoming events on our Twitter page.

Miami Metrozoo houses more than 1,200 wild animals in a cageless setting that gives the visitor the feeling of embarking on a safari. Guests can remain cool throughout various water play areas, hand feed giraffes, ride camels, meet Nickelodeon’s favorite animal rescuer, Diego, watch an incredible Wildlife Show or the new Quetzal’s World show.




Museums and cultural venues participate in Museum Day voluntarily. Smithsonian magazine encourages museum visitation, but is not responsible for individual museum content or participation.
