Lower Manhattan Cultural Organizations Extend “Downtown Culture Pass” Through January 2012

Pass Provides Three Days of Unlimited Access to Downtown Museums

NEW YORK--()--Downtown Culture Pass, an initiative which launched in November as a four-month pilot program to increase visits to cultural institutions in Lower Manhattan, has been extended through January 2012. The program was developed by several of Manhattan’s downtown museums to highlight the multiple cultural attractions located within convenient walking distance of each other.

The Downtown Culture Pass is a ticket – good for three days – that provides admission, shop discounts or other benefits at eight downtown museums plus a tour company, all located south of Chambers Street. For the single price of $25 for adults (18+), $15 for youths (13-17) and $5 for children (6-12), the Downtown Culture Pass grants each ticket holder unlimited admission and/or other discounted benefits for three full days to any and all participating museums, plus discounted tours conducted by Wall Street Walks.
