special exhibits

Limited-time museum features

Special exhibits are temporary displays at museums, galleries, zoos, or similar institutions, distinct from the permanent collection.

They typically focus on a particular theme, artist, or subject and run for a limited time: The museum's special exhibit on ancient Egypt drew record crowds.

Special exhibits often require separate admission or timed tickets.
