The association is participating in the Blue Star Museums Program, though which free admission is offered to active duty military personnel and their families this summer during open hours from Armed Forces Day through Labor Day, according to a news release from Shannon Gilmore with the association.

Blue Star Museums is a collaboration among the National Endowment for the Arts, Blue Star Families, the Department of Defense, and participating museums across America.
