Tampa Museum of Art offers pay-what-you-can admission every Thursday night

Some people want to see museums in Tampa Bay stay open later on weekend nights .

And while there’s no definitive museum to regularly catch great art after dark, you can at least get into Tampa’s big gallery for free once a week. Every Thursday, from 4 p.m.-8 p.m., guests can pay-what-they-want for entry to the Tampa Museum of Art (any donation is welcome, but no one’s gonna look at you weird if you don’t have any to spare).

On display now are Guyanese-born artist Suchitra Mattai’s found objects show “Bodies and Souls,” Esterio Segura’s “Hybrid of a Chrysler” sculpture parked on the second-story overlook (pictured), the abstract paintings in Vaughn Spann’s “Allegories,” and more.
