About the Initiative

 

The cost of museum admission can be a barrier for many low-income families. Museums for All is a national, branded access program that encourages individuals of all backgrounds to visit museums regularly and build lifelong museum habits.

Participating museums provide reduced admission, ranging from free to $3.00, to visitors presenting their EBT card.

Museums for All is an initiative of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), a federal agency based in Washington, DC. The initiative is administered by the Association of Children’s Museums through a cooperative agreement with IMLS.

Since the launch of the initiative in 2014/2015, Museums for All has served more than 4 million visitors nationwide at more than 850 museums of all varieties, representing all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
