Museum Adventure Pass

I found this at the library a few months ago and have been meaning to post about it. You can now check out museum passes at your local library from now until August 31, 2011.

Here is the information that is in the brochure I have:

1. Check out a Museum Adventure Pass using your library card at your home library.
Libraries have a limited number of passes for each participating organization. Passes are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Passes cannot be reserved or checked out online or on the phone. We look forward to your library visit!

2. One Museum Adventure Pass may be checked out per family, per loan period.
The loan period is SEVEN DAYS and can only be used once. Admission offers vary per museum. If no admission is charged, another special discount will be available. Details can be found at http://www.museumadventure.org/.

3. Passes are limited to general admission.
Each organization's page at http://www.museumadventure.org/ gives specific dates when passes cannot be used, and other restrictions that may apply.

Let the Adventure Begin
History and culture that excite and inspire, gardens that engage and soothe, hands-on discovery that educates and entertains- all of these and more are waiting for you at over 160 public libraries throughout the Chicago suburbs. Use your library card to receive a Museum Adventure Pass, presented by Macy's, and get free admission or a special discount, depending on location, at one of these Chicago are museums. Series runs September 1, 2010- August 31, 2011.
