Visiting Museums on the Cheap

This morning, I got to wondering whether there were nation or worldwide reciprocity programs for museums. Reciprocity is great: you become a member at one museum, and get free admission at a number of others. I'm a member of a couple of local museums that offer recips with other local museums, and we have gotten our money out of the programs many times over.

After a bit of searching, I found two different reciprocity programs for museums. The ASTC Passport program establishes reciprocal benefits between 300 science museums worldwide. For those interested in visiting other museums throughout North America (mostly art museums, from the look of it) you can join a museum that is a member of NARM, North American Reciprocal Museums.
