Mandel Community Days at Cleveland Museum of Natural History

The Cleveland Museum of Natural History opens its doors to local families through the Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Community Days program, offering free admission to residents of several nearby communities. If you live in Cleveland, East Cleveland, Brooklyn, Euclid, Garfield Heights, Maple Heights, or Warrensville Heights, you and your family can explore the entire museum at no cost. You'll need to reserve your tickets online ahead of time and bring proof of your residency (such as a driver's license, utility bill, lease agreement, or paystub) to present at the Welcome Desk when you arrive. This program gives you full access to everything included with general admission, so your family can spend the day discovering exhibits and learning together. It's a wonderful way to spend a Saturday getting to know one of the area's premier natural history institutions without worrying about admission costs. Since launching in 2022, the program has grown to welcome thousands of residents, and it now runs on both Saturdays and Sundays throughout the year.
