Wait…what?!
It’s true—with help from the Friends of the Kinderhook Memorial Library, we have purchased museum passes to a number of museums in Columbia County, the Capital District and western Massachusetts for patrons to use. You can now borrow museum passes for a one day loan and visit:
- The Berkshire Museum (admits 4 people)
- The Mount: Edith Wharton’s Estate and Gardens (admits 2 adults and all children)
- The Norman Rockwell Museum (admits 4 people)
- Mass/MoCA (admits 2 adults and 2 children)
- The Eric Carle Museum (admits 2 adults and up to 4 children)
- Hancock Shaker Village (admits 2 adults and 2 children)
- Schenectady Museum and Planetarium (admits 2 adults and all children)
- Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute (2 adults and all children)
We are hoping to add a number of historic sites to this list, too. During our test run of this program during the summer of 2009 (with a much smaller selection of passes), the library saved our community over $700 in museum admission fees. This year to date, we have saved our community almost $1,200 in admission fees! That is MORE than what it cost us to purchase all the passes combined!
Teens are invited to join us for Teen Movie Night when we will be showing the recent hit Clash of the Titans. In Clash of the Titans, the ultimate struggle for power pits men against kings and kings against gods.
