ART! Newport Art Museum added to Museums on US weekend program for Bank of America cardholders
From building blanket forts to inventing elaborate storylines for dolls and action figures, childhood play allows us to test roles and imagine new possibilities. As adults, that instinct evolves. We continue to construct narratives about who we are and how we are perceived. Play/Pretend traces this continuum between early imagination and adult self-construction, revealing play as a lifelong act of discovery.

The other two museums part of Bank of America’s program are the Providence Children’s Museum and the RI School of Design (RISD) Museum.
Over at the Providence Children’s Museum is “Maker Studio – Seed Science”. Every plant you’ve ever seen started as a little seed! So how do these little seeds become big plants? Join us and let’s learn and grow together!

Bank of America’s Museums on Us offers cardholders free general admission – during the first full weekend of every month – to cultural institutions across the United States.
Adjusted Museums on Us admission procedures, if applicable, can be found by locating and selecting a partner name on our Museums on Us map. Information posted here is updated on an ongoing basis.
Interested Bank of America customers/clients should review eligibility and terms prior to their visit.
Nearby Massachusetts museums are the New Bedford Whaling Museum and in Worcester, EcoTarium.
