Museum Passes

Free with your library card!

Each museum determines the rules and regulations governing the use of its museum pass. Olive Free Library strongly recommends that you call or visit the destination’s website to confirm their policies and hours before your visit. Passes typically exclude special exhibits or events. The Library assumes no responsibility arising from the terms of a museum pass.

Pass Details: There are four passes for free admission. Each pass allows for 1 adult or child over the age of 15 to enter the preserve.
