Weekday mornings right after opening are quietest, especially Tuesdays through Thursdays. The light is best in the Luce Center around midday for viewing the open storage collection.
Съвети за бюджет
Entry is free every day, no ticket needed. The museum is part of the Smithsonian group, so all galleries and the Luce Foundation Center are completely free of charge.
