Pikes Peak Culture Pass
Staff report
Pikes Peak Culture Pass lets you explore museums and attractions in the Pikes Peak region at no cost — all you need is a library card! By collaborating with local organizations, PPLD provides free admission passes for check out, similar to how you check out an eBook or other electronic resource. The Pikes Peak Culture Pass will increase opportunities for education and cultural learning, creating increased connection between books and hands-on experiences.
Patrons 12 years old and older with a valid PPLD library card can access a dedicated reservation page and book a pass online up to 30 days in advance by searching either the desired location or the date. Patrons can print their confirmation, which will serve as their entry ticket, directly from home or at any library location. The admission pass is only valid on the date requested. The number of people admitted per pass varies by location and will be shown on the reservation page and printed confirmation. Patrons will be allowed to reserve two admission passes per destination per year.
Reservations are only available 30 days in advance.
