Enjoy Museum Month San Diego WITH Kids!
Museum Month San Diego returns February 1 -28, 2018, with forty-five museums and cultural establishments taking part in the event. Each of the participating establishments offer half off admission in February with the FREE Museum Month Pass, available at Macy’s. Both kids and adults receive discount admission with the pass.
We LOVE exploring museums and cultural establishments. We’ve explored the majority of family-friendly museums in Southern California. San Diego probably has the most family-friendly museums in all of SoCal.
