The Museum will also continue to offer its Museums for All discounted admission for those patrons who present EBT, SNAP, or CalFresh identification cards.
“As part of our goal to provide improved access to all, including families with children, it was decided that the Museum would eliminate admission fees for those under 18 years of age,’ said Museum Executive Director Adri Howe. “We certainly hope it will allow for more families to come to CIMM and help them to enjoy and learn about the wonders of the maritime experience and human creativity.
Museums play an important role in our society and we very much believe that future museum lovers are created when people have access to museums, especially as youngsters.”
