Bishop Museum to Participate in Smithsonian Magazine’s Museum Day September 29, 2007
Bishop Museum and the Hawaii Maritime Center are pleased to announce it will be participating in Smithsonian Magazine’s nationwide Museum Day promotion on Saturday, September 29, 2007.
Free Admission Cards admitting the bearer and one guest free of charge will be available in the September 2007 issue of Smithsonian Magazine or downloaded easily at www.smithsonianmagazine.com/museumday.
Museum Day celebrates
the country’s cultural offerings, allows the dissemination
of knowledge, and brings Americans together. Last
year nearly 450 museums and cultural institutions
nationwide participated in the effort, which emulates
the Smithsonian’s Washington, D.C. year-round
free admission policy. The complete list of participating
museums across the nation is available at www.smithsonianmagazine.com.
Bishop Museum will be open September 29 from
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Museum Day Admission
Card is good for one-day use only on September
29, 2007. The Admission Card will be collected
upon entry and is redeemable for general admission
for the presenter and one guest. Only one Admission
Card per household is allowed. The Museum
Day Admission Card may not be used
with any other offer and no rain checks will be
offered.
“We are proud to join the Smithsonian’s effort to promote awareness about the integrity, importance, and relevance of our nation’s cultural institutions,” says Michael Chinaka, Interim President of Bishop Museum.
