Nice! They should do it more often so people do not have to pay to soak up more culture. The Smithsonians are free of charge all year long. However, if there are no donations from the public, it is understandable  that a modest fee should apply for restoration work. Is it customary for Peruvians who have the means to donate to the museums?
