The Museum Pass Program
Thanks to the generous support of the Friends of the Abbott Library, the Museum Pass Program enables patrons to visit New England attractions. It’s a great way for friends and family to be life long learners by visiting places that provide culture, history and other opportunities to learn. The Friends will reimburse admission charges to any museum in New England.
We also have museum passes for local museums such as: The Fells, the Vermont Institute of Natural Science (VINS), and the Currier Museum. These passes must be picked up at the library and can be reserved by emailing or calling us.
