(All membership levels at the Virgnia Museum of Natural History receive ASTC Passport Program benefits!)

As a member of the Virginia Museum of Natural History, you will receive free admission at science centers and museums around the world.  The ASTC Passport Program (Association of Science-Technology Centers) allows members to sample some of the world's most exciting science centers and museums when they're on vacation or visiting family and friends, and to save some money while doing it.  Families and adults who are members of their local science centers or museums receive free general admission to all the other participating ASTC Passport Program science centers or museums around the world.  Currently, there are more than 250 institutions in more than a dozen countries.

The program does not apply to centers within a 90-mile radius of Martinsville, Virginia.  In addition, the free general admission often does not include tickets to such things as giant-screen theaters, planetarium shows or simulators.  To get free admission at an out-of-town science center or museum, you will need to bring your membership card from your own science center or museum.

Have fun, learn, and save money no matter where you travel!  Call your local science center or museum and become a member today!
