ACCESS & EBT Cardholders

For the first time ever, individuals with disabilities can purchase an ACCESS Card directly from Art-Reach that allows them to receive $2 admission to over 50 museums, gardens, theaters, and cultural sites throughout Greater Philadelphia.

The Art-Reach ACCESS card is an expansion of our ACCESS program and serves people who identify with having a disability and rely on Philadelphia as their cultural hub, but for whatever reason are not eligible for state benefits. Starting July 1, 2021 Delaware EBT cardholders are invited to visit participating sites at the deeply discounted rate of $2 per person.

  • EBT funds cannot be used to pay admission
  • Discount is not valid for special exhibitions, special events, or with any other offers
  • Participating sites may not be physically accessible or provide accommodations, please confirm prior to visiting. Art-Reach is not responsible for providing accessible accommodations.

As a mom of a son with special needs for 12 years, we just found out about the program this summer. It was an absolute joy to be able to go to the Franklin Institute as a family.
