In the US, our taxes support these museums, as I'm sure they do in Poland. However, many of the museums across United States are for-profit entities. It's a big difference in many regards between much of the rest the world and the United States. Capitalism rules the day here. Much of these entities receive funding from private citizens too, endowments etc. People are "patrons" of the arts. Rich people supporting museums which will have some days that are open to all but charge admission normally. However, Washington DC is deliberately the peoples city. There's much for everyone To do there, even the poor. Though it's extremely expensive to live or rent there.
