Museum Pass Program

Did you know that even though many museums are closed you can still visit them online?

The Goshen Public Library & Historical Society and the Friends of the Goshen Library have purchased memberships to a number of area museums for your enjoyment. The museum passes, most of which are family memberships, can be borrowed by Goshen card holders age 18 and older whose library accounts are in good standing.

Some of the passes have been allowed to expire for the time being due to concerns regarding group gatherings. However, the Goshen Public Library & Historical Society has several active memberships which our patrons can enjoy and which can currently be borrowed for a 3-day period. Advanced ticketing is required at some sites. The passes available all offer at least some outdoor experience for the visitor. You may need to check with the individual site regarding admission polices.
