Prepare yourself for some cute pictures of kids at museums 😉 This article is part advice, part travelogue, from the perspective of Hope, the founder of Family Scripts. If you’re like me, you’ve spent a lot of your life thinking art museums were boring and pretentious. Mandatory field trips, snotty rich people, and actual artists who know how to appreciate it…is there another category of museum visitors?
LOVE this post, Hope -- such great advice. My parents took me to many art (and other) museums as a kid, and as such, I never really grew up with the attitude that they were boring and pretentious. (My husband says, "You're a museum person," and it's true, but it wouldn't be true if I hadn't been raised that way, probably.)
Another way to get in for free is to check the rewards on your credit cards. Many offer free entrance or discounted prices to museums and aquariums around the country. Also worth mentioning military discounts -- many museums offer them to veterans in addition to those on active duty (even if you're just saving money on one ticket, one discounted ticket makes a difference when the total bill is $$$!)
We love our passes!!! It definitely makes traveling fun when we can squeeze in a free outing!!!!! Love this post!!!
