General admission at the Norton Museum of Art is $20, and the museum lists several ways to get in free or for less. They depend on where you live, what card you carry and which day you go. We read the Norton’s Plan Your Visit page on October 20, 2026 and worked out the dates each offer covers for the season ahead.
The short version, checked October 20, 2026
City residents: free every Saturday. County residents: free Saturdays, Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend. Military, veterans and Florida educators: free year round. Bank of America cardholders: the first full weekend of each month, next on Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8, 2026. Fridays 5 to 10 PM: $10 Art After Dark.
What a regular ticket costs
The Norton lists general admission at $20, seniors (60+) at $17, students with ID at $5, and children 12 and under free. Members are free. For two adults a regular visit comes to $40 by our arithmetic.

City of West Palm Beach residents: every Saturday
The Norton says City of West Palm Beach residents get free admission for one every Saturday, year round, with valid ID. From our check date to the end of 2026 that covers 10 Saturdays, from October 24 to December 26. None of the holidays the Norton closes for falls on a Saturday this year.

Palm Beach County residents: summer Saturdays
County residents get the same free admission for one on Saturdays from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend, with valid ID. In 2027 Memorial Day falls on Monday, May 31 and Labor Day on Monday, September 6, so by our calendar the window runs from Saturday, May 29, 2027 to Saturday, September 4, 2027: 15 Saturdays. The Norton has not posted a separate 2027 list, so check its page before you go.
Military, veterans and Florida educators
The Norton lists free admission year round for active U.S. military and veterans, for two people, and for Florida educators, for one.

Bank of America cardholders: the first full weekend
The Norton gives Bank of America cardholders free admission on the first full weekend of each month, Saturday and Sunday, and does not print the dates. A full weekend needs both days in the same month, so a month that starts on a Sunday waits until the next Saturday. November 1, 2026 is a Sunday, which pushes November’s weekend to November 7 and 8. The next six, by our calendar:
- Saturday, November 7 and Sunday, November 8, 2026
- Saturday, December 5 and Sunday, December 6, 2026
- Saturday, January 2 and Sunday, January 3, 2027
- Saturday, February 6 and Sunday, February 7, 2027
- Saturday, March 6 and Sunday, March 7, 2027
- Saturday, April 3 and Sunday, April 4, 2027
October’s weekend, October 3 and 4, had already passed when we checked.
Art After Dark: Fridays for $10
The Norton says Art After Dark runs every Friday night with live performances, film screenings and art workshops, and lists Fridays from 5 to 10 PM. Its visit page prices it at $10 for adults and seniors and $5 for students. That is $10 under the regular adult ticket, by our arithmetic.
