Mandel Community Days at Cleveland Museum of Natural History

The Cleveland Museum of Natural History opens its doors for free admission to families from several nearby communities during Mandel Community Days. Residents of Cleveland, East Cleveland, Brooklyn, Euclid, Garfield Heights, Maple Heights, and Warrensville Heights can enjoy full access to all the museum's exhibits and attractions at no cost. This program, which started in January 2022, has expanded beyond its original Sunday schedule to now include Saturday hours as well, making it easier for working families to participate. To take advantage of this opportunity, you'll need to reserve your tickets online ahead of time and bring proof of residency when you arrive at the Welcome Desk. Acceptable proof includes a current Ohio driver's license, utility bill, bank statement, insurance document, lease or mortgage paperwork, or a recent paystub or W2. Your free admission gives you access to everything a regular general admission ticket includes, so you can spend the day exploring exhibits with your kids without worrying about ticket costs.
