Norton Museum of Art

The Norton Museum of Art is kicking off summer with a burst of programming and a return to a six-day schedule as society begins emerging from lockdown. 

Starting June 1, the museum will be open six days a week with admission free on Saturdays through Labor Day for all Palm Beach County residents with a valid ID, museum officials said Thursday. The museum will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday; 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday; and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. It will be closed Wednesdays.

Currently, the museum is only open Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

On June 4, the Norton launches “Celebrating Black Florida,” a month-long tribute to African-American life and culture in the Sunshine State that will include a concert by the Rock the House Blues Band on Art After Dark Jazz Friday, and a Juneteenth celebration June 19 that offers museum tours, African dance and drum workshops, and a community art project.
