What if my museum is closed during the time I have a museum pass?
You are responsible for planning your trip. Be sure to check the museum’s hours before you reserve a museum pass. When requesting a pass, you can click on the museum’s name which will then display admission details and a link to the museum’s website.

The museum pass won’t cover my entire family. Can I request a second pass?
No. The number of passes from a single museum is limited to one museum pass per household, every 30 days.

How often can I reserve a museum pass?
To ensure fair access to the greatest number of patrons, you can reserve a maximum of two museum passes of any type every 30 days. That is also the limit for households. You may not reserve the same museum more than once in a 30-day period. You may check out two passes at the same time as long as they are for two different museums. At our discretion, additional reservations made within 30 days will be deleted. Passes can be reserved up to 30 days in advance. Multiple copies made of the same Print-on-Demand pass will not be honored by museums.
