Visit the Money Museum

Bring the family to explore currency and learn about how money works at this free museum inside the Federal Reserve Bank. There's no need to buy tickets—just show up and walk through at your own pace. The self-guided format means you can spend as much or as little time as you'd like on exhibits that interest you most. Fair warning: you'll go through airport-style security screening when you arrive, so plan accordingly. To make the most of your visit, download the museum's free app before you go. It offers guided tours and scavenger hunts that can add an interactive element to your exploration, especially for kids who enjoy a challenge. The museum is open until 4:00 p.m., but plan to arrive by 3:30 p.m. at the latest to ensure you have time inside. Everyone is welcome, making this a great low-pressure outing for families of any age.
