2026 Pride at the Whitney
Celebrate Pride at the Whitney all month long. Discover the queer history of the Meatpacking District, contribute to the Community Pride Mural, and get creative with artists. For all of June, drop by the Museum to enjoy inclusive activities for all ages. LGBTQ+ visitors and allies are invited to free parties, creative workshops, performances, and more.
Free at the Whitney
Every Friday evening from 5–10 pm and on the second Sunday of every month, admission to the Museum is free. Both offerings include free access to exhibitions, special programming, city views, and more. Visitors 25 and under are always free, every day.
The Whitney Biennial
The Whitney Biennial is the longest-running survey of American art, and has been a hallmark of the Museum since 1932. The current format—a survey show of work in all media occurring every two years—has been in place since 1973. Mark your calendars for the next iteration, opening March 2026.
