Visit a museum for less

Boston is abounds with world-renowned art, and you can view a number of priceless collections for free or at a low cost. It should come as no surprise that a city as diverse and collegiate as Boston is home to museums of all kinds. The collections range from contemporary art and design to science and history, and are as diverse as the structures that house them, which include ships, floral gardens, and monumental structures.

Every Wednesday from 3 pm, the celebrated Museum of Fine Arts allows guests to enter for only $5 per person, which is quite the deal. Better yet for your budget, the Institute of Contemporary Art is free on Thursdays from 5 pm to 9 pm. Meanwhile, everyone gets a free pass to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum on their birthday, and anyone with the name Isabella always gets to visit the museum without charge, as per Gardner’s request.

Prices Range: Only $5
