Got a day to spend in Sacramento? Make it free-admission Museum Day

Planning a trip to California’s state capital? More than 25 museums in Sacramento will open their doors to visitors for free or half-price admission Feb. 3 on the city’s 20th Museum Day.

--California State Railroad Museum at 125 I St. (usually $12 for adults), where you can see 19 steam engines and other rail-centric exhibits;

--California Automobile Museum at 2200 Front St. (usually $10 for adults), which has more than 150 vehicles, from the 19th century to the present; and

--Sutter’s Fort State Historic Park at 2701 L St. (usually $5 for adults), a restored mid-19th century California pioneer settlement.

The Sacramento Zoo will offer half-priced admission ($7.50 for adults, $5 for children 2 to 11 years old), and Fairytale Town kids park cuts prices to $2.88 per person.

When: Free and reduced admissions are good Feb. 3 only.
