I received an e-mail from the Phoenix Museum of Art with a link for the 2009-2010 Culture Pass. I had no idea what it was so I followed the link and found out some great info about the program.

This is how it works: From April 1, 2009-April 1, 2010 you can visit participating public libraries and check out the pass. A receipt will be issued with a due-date that admits 4 for FREE to several different area arts and cultural institutions. Only one pass can be checked out per person, per loan period. The pass is good for 7 days then it expires. You do not need to return it to the library. There are a limited number of passes at each library and they are available on a first-come, first served basis. They can not be reserved, renewed or requested through interlibrary transfer. Passes may be limited to general admission only. Special exhibitions may not be covered, and other restrictions may apply.

City of Chandler, City of Phoenix, City of Glendale, City of Scottsdale, City of Mesa, and City of Tempe.
