MoMA PS1 to Offer Free Admission Starting January 2026, Expanding Access to Art
MoMA PS1, a contemporary art museum in Queens, New York, will eliminate admission fees for all visitors beginning January 1, 2026. This initiative, funded by philanthropist Sonya Yu, marks the museum's 50th anniversary and aims to make it the largest admission-free museum in New York City. The decision aligns with MoMA PS1's history as an alternative art space, emphasizing emerging and experimental artists. The museum has been enhancing accessibility through multilingual resources and free event tickets for local residents. Connie Butler, the museum's director, highlighted that the free-admission policy extends the museum's mission of making art accessible to a broader audience.
