Chicago Public Library - Great Kids Museum Passports
Witness the birth of a star, stare down menacing moray eels, come nose to antennae with fragile butterflies or sway upon the rigging of a huge schooner. Wander galleries and marvel at both ancient and modern art. Journey backwards to a time when dinosaurs ruled the earth, or step back just far enough to trace the growth and changes of Chicago and the nation.
All of these adventures and much, much more are possible without even leaving Chicago. It’s all waiting for you and your family at any Chicago Public Library location by checking out free Great Kids Museum Passports to 13 of Chicago’s world class cultural institutions. Made possible by a generous grant from Kraft Foods, through the Chicago Public Library Foundation, the Great Kids Museum Passport program is part of an ongoing commitment by Kraft to support the development of Chicago’s Great Kids.
Here is how the Great Kids Museum Passports work:
1) Adult residents of the City of Chicago may check out Museum Passports at all Chicago Public Library locations with their valid Chicago Public Library card.
2) One Museum Passport can be checked out per person, per loan period. The loan period for each Great Kids Museum Passport is ONE WEEK.
3) Each Library location has a limited number of Passports for each of the 13 museums.
4) The overdue fine for Museum Passports is $1.00 per day, with a maximum limit of $10.00. The charge for a LOST Museum Passport is $30.00.
5) Great Kids Museum Passports cannot be renewed or reserved.
6) Museum Passports must be returned to the main desk of the library location from which they were checked out.
The Library recommends that you check the websites of each museum before your visit to note current hours and exhibition information.
Enjoy your visit to Chicago's great museums and The Chicago Public Library!
