Museum Adventure Pass (MAP) Program |
The Museum Adventure Pass (MAP) Program comes to a close September 30, 2011 and will return for a fifth and final year in late May, 2012. Thanks to the generous support of program sponsor Macy’s, as well as the collaboration of partners The Library Network, Cultural Alliance of Southeast Michigan, and Library of Michigan Foundation, a total of nearly 300,000 passes to metropolitan Detroit cultural attractions have been checked out to public library patrons in a nine county area since October, 2007.
Starting again in May of 2012, free passes to select Detroit metro area museums will be available for check-out at all branches of the Monroe County Library System. Patrons will be able to use their library cards to check-out a free admission pass, good for 7 days, and admitting either 2 or 4 people depending on the museum. Libraries have a limited number of passes for each participating organization. Passes are available on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot be reserved, renewed or requested through interlibrary loan.
