We have a lot of memberships to local museums here in the Detroit area. We do it because we like supporting the museums...and, like you, we like the flexibility having a membership offers us. There are times we may just want to drop in to see a specific special exhibit or program. Other times, we may just want to drop in to take a few photos or eat lunch (I'm thinking of Greenfield Village here--an outdoor attraction full of restored structures, a great tavern and lots of special programs throughout the warmer months).

Thank you for describing the benefits of museum membership! There are more than 300 science centers and museums participating in the ASTC Travel Passport Program worldwide. Just one recommendation: it’s a good idea to call ahead and confirm your admission benefits before arriving at the museum. Then you’ll know what to expect when you get to your destination. Safe travels!
