Culture Pass
Library cardholders can check out a Culture Pass for free admission for two people at participating arts and cultural institutions.
Passes are available on a first-come, first-served basis; they will not allow renewals or holds to be placed on them, nor will staff be able to pull them for you. You may see what's available at the moment in the library catalog.
The display for the Culture Pass Program is at the front of each library. Find the destination you're interested in, and take the card to the checkout desk. Staff will give you a date-due slip admitting two people for a visit in the next seven days. You do not need to return the slip: it will expire.
Passes may be limited to general admission only. Special exhibitions may not be covered, and other restrictions may apply. One pass per family, two passes per month, please.
