How it Works

*Some museum partners may require Timed Tickets for entry. Timed Tickets must be reserved for the same date as your museum pass reservation. Once you reserve a pass on the library’s website, click the link to the museum’s website to reserve your Timed Ticket.

  • You must ensure that there are time slots available from the museum’s website prior to making your museum pass reservation.
  • If you arrive at the museum with a printable pass but have not reserved a Timed Ticket, you will not be admitted to the museum.

If you have reserved a printable pass and are unable to reserve a Timed Ticket for the same day, you must contact your local library to cancel your reservation and reschedule for a different date.
