DETROIT (WXYZ) - I “mustache” you a question: Would you like to get free admission to the Detroit Institute of Arts this weekend?

Well, you can if you have a mustache. The DIA is offering free museum admission to anyone who arrives sporting the right facial hair August 3- 5.

If you don’t have a mustache, don’t worry. The deal also works for fake mustaches too.

The promotion is to celebrate the work of Salvador Dali, a 20 th century artist, who --of course—sported some fur on his upper lip.

Visitors will also be able to watch a Salvador Dali inspired puppet performance.

According to the DIA’s website, the offer is good for one general admission ticket and can’t be combined with any other discounts. They also say the offer is only valid if the mustache is visible.
