Free admission to the exhibition 'Women Impressionists and the Land' on a Friday, with late museum hours.
Women Impressionists and the Land is on view at the Saint Louis Art Museum, and if you've been meaning to catch it, Friday, November 20, is a good day to do it. The exhibition is part of the museum's Free Fridays series, which opens the galleries to visitors free of charge on Fridays. It's one of those regular things the museum does, so if you miss this particular date, there are other Fridays in the series to keep in mind.
The show itself centers on women Impressionists and their approach to the landscape. Impressionism is usually associated with the big names you've heard a thousand times, but this exhibition shifts the focus to the women who worked within that tradition, looking at how they captured the land and the outdoors. It's a chance to see that movement from a different angle, with the women who were painting alongside the more famous figures of the era.
One of the best things about Free Fridays is that the museum stays open late. On these days, the galleries are open from 10 AM to 8 PM, so you don't have to rush in during a lunch break or a weekend morning. You can take your time with the paintings and still have the whole day to work around. It's a good setup if you'd rather wander through the galleries in the evening than fight the midday crowds.

Admission is free, but there are a couple of things to keep in mind before you head over. You'll need a ticket to get in, even though it's free, and the last entry to the exhibition is at 8 PM. The museum is at 1 Fine Arts Dr, in Forest Park, so it's easy to get to. If you've been wanting to see Women Impressionists and the Land without spending anything, this is the day to do it.
