Some people with disabilities find it difficult to visit museums and theaters. Sometimes this is caused by things that museums and theaters have done that keep people out. These are called barriers. One of those barriers is cost.
The Art-Reach ACCESS program is helping to reduce the cost of going to a museum of theater for people with disabilities.
To get an Art-Reach ACCESS Card, we need to know if you have a disability.
