Setauket, NY – January 27, 2023 –
Dog lovers will be “paws-itively” thrilled – the AKC Museum of the Dog was recently added to Emma Clark Library’s “Museum Pass” collection!
The AKC Museum of the Dog boasts a combination of fine art, high-tech interpretive displays, and according to their website, “rotating exhibits featuring objects from its 1,700-piece collection and 4,000-volume library.” Three Village residents may borrow a pass for free admission for 2 adults and 2 children (12 and under) to the canine museum, located at 101 Park Avenue in New York City (the museum lists regular admission prices on their website as adults at $15, student/youth/seniors/active military and veterans at $10, and children at $5). Those with a pass not only get the advantage of visiting the museum for free, but also received a 10% discount to the museum gift shop. This pass is a “Print on Demand”, which means there is no need to pick up or return a physical pass to the Library. Users may print the pass from any computer, even from home. To reserve a pass, Library cardholders may visit emmaclark.org/museum-passes.
The Museum Pass program at Emma Clark Library features over 30 museums, gardens, historic sites, family-friendly attractions, and cultural institutions on Long Island and in New York City.
