Bank of America’s Museums on Us Weekend returns with FREE ENTRY to several Central Florida Museums

During the first full weekend of every month, Bank of America and Merrill Bank offer cardholders free general admission on both Saturday and Sunday to more than 225 cultural institutions in dozens of cities across the US including here in Orlando, and throughout Florida.


Sounds Good? The great news is that the latest free entry days take place this weekend, Saturday, October 3 and Sunday, October 4, 2026..


In Orlando you can visit Orlando Science Center, Orange County History Center, Orlando Museum of Art, and the Mennello Museum of Art!


Free family fun day at Orlando Museum of Art

This weekend Orlando Museum of Art will be hosting a Family Day on Saturday, October 3, from 11 am to 2 pm in honor of the Hello Sophie! The Artwork of Sophie Blackall exhibition.


This event is a fun and educational experience for all ages, featuring hands-on activities, live music, storytelling, dance and more, all centered around Sophie’s award-winning work.

 

Sophie Blackall has illustrated more than 50 children's books, including the New York Times best-selling Ivy and Bean series. She is a two-time winner of the Randolph Caldecott Medal – a yearly award given to the illustrator of the best American picture book for children – for Finding Winnie in 2016 and Hello Lighthouse in 2019. The free Family Day on Saturday, October 3, includes a presentation and a book signing with Sophie.


Families will also experience Hello Lighthouse through Symphony Storytime@OMA, featuring a narrated reading brought to life with live music performed by musicians from the Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra. It’s a chance to encounter the story through sound as well as pictures, then spend time exploring the art that inspired your visit. Reading the book beforehand can give children something familiar to listen for and a starting point for their own questions about making books.
