We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Bank of America wants to give its cardholders FREE access to over 150 museums around the US on the 1st Saturday & Sunday of each month.

    See Van Gogh’s “Wheat Field With Cypresses” for Free at the Metropolitan Museum of Art With Your Bank of America Debit or Credit Card

    I’ll show you how to get free admission to places like the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago!

    Link:   List of Participating Museums

    With Bank of America’s “Museums on Us” program, you can get free admission to select museums within the US.

    To get in for free, just show a valid photo ID along with a Bank of America debit or credit card such as:

    Before you load up the mini-van for a family trip to the museum, here’s what you need to know:

    You Will NOT Get the Admission Fee Waived Outside of These Dates!

    This is a great deal, especially for folks who have leisure travel plans on the 1st weekend of the month.

    For example, if you’re going to Orlando to visit Walt Disney World, you might visit the Orlando Science Center.

    Bottom Line

    On the 1st Saturday & Sunday of each month, Bank of America (or Merrill Lynch) debit or credit card holders get free admission to participating museums.

    But keep in mind this perk is only good for the cardholder.  So unless your spouse, significant other, or kids have their own Bank of America card, they’ll still have to pay.  But it is easy to get free additional cards for your family!

    That said, this is a nice bonus for folks who have a Bank of America card.

    I can’t wait to visit The Contemporary Austin museum!  Which museum will you choose?
