A suggested admission increase for the Museum of Contemporary Art was approved Wednesday by the Chicago Park District. The price change takes effect July 1.

For Chicago residents, student and senior tickets will increase from $8 to $10, and the adult price will increase from $15 to $19. For non-Chicago residents, student and senior tickets will cost $14, up from $8, and adult tickets will be $22, up from $15.

Tickets for children under 18 will remain free.

While the museum’s suggested admission supports its exhibitions and programs, according to its website, under its pay-what-you-can policy, no one will be turned away.
