Well, there's a wide offer. Casa de la Gastronoma Peruana is nice, though small, just for be there. More interesting are San Francisco convent & Catacombs, Santo Domingo convent (my favorite), Archeological museum of San Marcos univiersity (never been there, I'll go on friday), and the a Municipal Palace of Lima will be open (usually it is not), somebody told me it's beautiful inside, I won't miss the opportunity to visit.
There's a facebook page called "Lima Milenaria, Ciudad de Culturas". It has posted pictures with the entire list of museums.

Thanks V. Well definately the palace, been there once when they had the display of the Machu Pichu artifacts returned from Yale University and the wee part I saw was impressive, would be great to see more. and San Marcos sounds great too.
