Summer May Be Over... But You Can Still ACCESS Fun

With ESY coming to an end and the fall term around the corner, we wanted to make sure that everyone is aware of a wonderful program that parents, students, staff and faculty alike can take advantage of as summer draws to a close.

The ACCESS program by Art Reach is a community initiative that seeks to make museums and cultural sites more accessible and affordable. It operates in the Greater Philadelphia area and is intended for Pennsylvania and Delaware residents receiving public assistance for food or medical benefits. Individuals who identify as having a disability but don’t have these benefits are able to apply to purchase one.

An ACCESS card allows you to purchase $2 admission to any of the participating sites, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Barnes Foundation, Philadelphia Zoo, Please Touch Museum, Franklin Institute, Academy of Natural Sciences, African American History Museum, Magic Gardens, Betsy Ross House and so much more.
