Below is a work in progress of every museum in the United States that offers free admission. If able, we've linked directly to the museum's website where the free admission policy is stated as well as noted where the museum is located; broken down by states, then cities. Also, you'll find a few commonly used acronyms throughout the list, but they're not too hard to understand!

One of the tenets of literacy programs is that people will learn more when it's related to a subject that interests them. Voice of America reports that educators in New York are applying that idea with their grade-school students by offering opportunities to create comic books. Michael Bitz, who created the Comic Book Project, acknowledges that it's difficult to determine a definite link between the project and its effect on students' literacy skills, but the program focuses just as much on the writing of comic books as the artwork. But the success of the program is clear: engage students with subjects that interest them, and they'll show dedication to learning.
