Reciprocal Admission

ASTC Travel Passport Program

Sciencenter members receive free admission to more than 275 science museums worldwide through the Association of Science-Technology Centers (ASTC) Travel Passport Program.

Keep in mind that some local restrictions apply to the ASTC Travel Passport Program.  Museums located within 90 miles of the Sciencenter are automatically excluded from the reciprocity program. (A 90-mile limit has been established by ASTC to prevent regular visits to nearby museums by people who may have purchased only one membership.)

Museums opt in and out of ASTC membership annually. Please check this list of participating science museums before you visit.
