Museum of Flight Receives $30,000 Wells Fargo Foundation Grant

SEATTLE – The Museum of Flight announces a grant of $30,000 from the Wells Fargo Foundation for the Museums for All program designed to offer the Museum for free or at low cost to those in the community who may be faced with financial barriers.

“The Museums for All program, generously supported by the Wells Fargo Foundation, plays a key role in reducing barriers to access and creating a sense of belonging for all visitors—especially those historically underrepresented in aerospace and museum environments,” said The Museum of Flight Vice President of Development Trip Switzer. “This funding enables us to extend a warm welcome to families and individuals who might not otherwise be financially able to visit and allows the Museum to engage and connect with a broader audience.”

$3 Admission
The Museums for All program offers reduced admission for visitors with any form of government or public assistance. Guests receive $3 admission tickets for up to two adults and four youth under the program. The discount applies to adult, youth and senior general admission tickets.

$29 Membership
The Museum of Flight also offers guests that receive any form of public or government assistance a reduced priced Aviator Membership to the museum. The membership includes unlimited free admission for two adults and the member’s children under the age of 18 when accompanied by the member.

Museum Benefits and Discounts
They also receive early access registration for Aerospace Camp Experience (ACE); a 15 percent discount on all museum store purchases, movie tickets, simulator rides and ticketed events; access to special events and a subscription to the Aloft Membership Magazine.

The discounts for general admission tickets and the reduced priced membership are funded by the grant from the Wells Fargo Foundation.
