Arizona Culture Pass - Free Museums!


This is a great offer! Hopefully it will last through the summer and we can all enjoy cold museum A/C with the kids for free! :)

Using what is called a "Culture Pass", you can get a group of 4 people into the following places for FREE:

AZ Museum for Youth
AZ Museum of Natural History
AZ Science Center
The Bead Museum
Cave Creek Museum
Children's Museum of Phoenix
Desert Botanical Garden
Heard Museum
Mesa Contemporary Arts
Phoenix Art Museum
Phoenix Zoo
Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art
Taliesin West

Basically what you do is go to your library and check out a pass for the particular place you want to go to sometime during the upcoming week, and the pass just automatically expires after 7 days so you don't even have to return it. (You do have to have a library card in Scottsdale, Phoenix, Chandler, Mesa, Tempe, or Glendale). It starts on April 1, and there isn't a date listed of when it ends.

This is awesome! What a cool find! I'll be sharing with my readers, if you don't mind. :)

It sounds good if you belong to one of these libraries. Unfortunately, my library is Maricopa County Libraries and they don't participate. I don't know why they don't include all libraries.

it is a great idea but we live in arizona city and we are not eligable. somehow it just does not seem fair. maybe it could be extended to include more areas? that would be wonderful. d young

My family used it for the Arizona Museum for Youth in Mesa. It was a great family activity on a rainy day. Thank you for setting up such a wonderful program. It helps families to save money, but gives the opportunity to spend more time with my kids.
