Museum Adventure Passes are now available year-round to cardholders of the PAPL. These passes can be checked out by contacting the Adult Services desk for current availability. The library provides a limited number of passes for each participating organization, and they are distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are not possible; however, requests can be made in person or online via the Museum Adventure Pass website.
Each family is allowed one pass per loan period on an adult card. The loan period lasts seven days and expires after the date printed on the pass. Offers included with the Museum Adventure Pass vary depending on the museum. Some museums allow free admission for two or four people per pass or offer admission by carload. If admission is already free, another special discount will be provided.
Passes are intended for one-time use and cannot be transferred to others. The name of the user will appear on the pass, and identification may be required at the museum entrance where the pass will be collected.
The program also includes Explore More Illinois, a cultural pass initiative offering access to various attractions like museums, park districts, historical societies, performing and visual arts centers across Illinois. This service is free and accessible 24/7 from any device with internet access.
For further details about specific offers or participating locations, individuals are encouraged to visit both the Museum Adventure Pass website and Explore More Illinois page.
