The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum will have a free admission day Sunday, thanks to the Ford Motor Company Fund.

Museum officials say the Ford Community Day, which offers the free admission between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Sunday, is a “thank you” to the Middle Tennessee community and to reward out-of-towners who luck up.

This is quite a deal, since general admission is usually $24.95, and because tours of Hatch Show Print and Historic RCA Studio B will also be free on the Ford Day (they are available on a first-come, first-served basis.)
