Association of Science and Technology Centers

The Association of Science and Technology Centers (ASTC) Passport Program is a network of ASTC member museums around the world that offer free admission to one another’s members who hold premium family memberships. Currently, more than 360 museums participate in the network and provide free or reduced admission to ASTC Passport members.

Each institution has its own admissions policy, so call before you go to get the details. Also, reciprocity extends only to regular/general admission—it does not include free admission to additional attractions such as special exhibits, planetarium shows, simulator rides or giant-screen films. It also does not usually include museum store discounts.
