The Museum Pass Program, sponsored by the Friends of the West Hartford Library, provides passes to area museums and attractions. The current museums are listed below. The passes are good for one day only, and may be reserved up to one month in advance.  They need to be picked up and returned the day of use to the Children's Department at the Main Library.  (Since the museums provide only one pass to us, we regret that we are unable to have the passes available at the branches.)  

Please note, each museum has different numbers of adults and/or children who may be admitted for free. Call 860-561-6980 to reserve a pass.

Note: Patrons are limited to one museum visit per day.
