Yes, you should be able to get Vermeer tickets through Ticketmaster.
The tickets are free but you'll have to pay a service fee.  If you are in DC
you can get tickets at the National Gallery in the East Building lobby.  Be
forwarned, however, that everything is closed--the National Gallery
included--until the furlough ends.  I ran into quite a few disappointed
Vermeer ticket holders as I was volunteering at the Phillips Collection this
past Sunday.  [btw the Phillips has a nice exhibition called "In the
American Grain" with paintings by O'Keefe, Marin, Dove, and photos by
Stieglitz up right now]  Hope you get to see the Vermeer show!

This may seem like a horribly ridiculous question but where can one get
tickets for the Vermeer exhibit?  Are they available through the likes of
Ticketmaster?  I know they are nescessary and specify entry for a
certain day and time, I just don't know know how to get my hands on
them!
