The purpose of this collection is to support Museums for All, a voluntary program to increase access to museums for underserved audiences. Through Museums for All, museums allow Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card holders to receive reduced-price admission to their facilities. This information collection will obtain data from participating museums necessary to administer the program, such as institution contact information and a staff person to administer the program.
The Museums for All Program is being evaluated using the actual institutions participating in the program, an online survey, and a sample of institutional personnel using telephone interviews. The number of participants has been reduced from 500 to 138.
