Museum Passes

The Friends of the Library is pleased to be sponsoring the very popular Museum Pass Program by offering free passes to The Long Island Children's Museum, Cradle of Aviation Museum, Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum, Museum of Modern Art, New York Botanical Garden and Nassau County Museum of Art, and Old Westbury Gardens. Each pass will admit individuals and guests or families, making it easier than ever to reap the benefits of living in such close proximity to world class museums.

Rockville Centre Public Library cardholders may reserve museum passes in advance online or by calling the Adult Reference Desk at 766-6257, x5.  Each Museum Pass Packet, including passes and all the information you need for your visit, may be checked out for 3 days from the Adult Reference Desk. Keep in mind there is a $20 late fee per day, in order to ensure that the Museum Pass Packets is available for the next patron. Museum pass kits may not be placed in the bookdrop. Please return them, in person, promptly.

The Library encourages patrons to check museum/garden websites before their visit as days closed and operating hours are not reflected on the reservation page. Special events may have added fees which are not covered by membership and are therefore the responsibility of the patron.
Patrons can access museum websites from our Tixkeeper homepage by clicking on the particular museum. The Pass Details icon will give information on the number of adults and children that will be allowed admittance with that particular museum pass.

 
Exhibits

February
Helen Kraus Community Room: Suburban Art League Annual Show

The suburban Art League was established in 1963 to increase cooperation among artists, art students, craftsmen, publishers, and all engaged in artistic pursuits; and to provide a registry for artists.  The League hosts competitions and exhibits, and promotes the study of art through monthly art demonstrations for both members and non-members at the Syosset Woodbury Community Center in Woodbury, NY, on the first Tuesday of every month except July and August.

Lower Concourse Gallery: Paintings by Diane Meeker

Ms. Meeker loved painting and drawing when she was a child, and her efforts won her accolades and awards in high school.  She married young, however, and put her artistic endeavours aside while raising her family.  Taking inspiration from Grandma Moses, who started painting later in her life, Ms. Meeker returned to pursue her talents as a mature artist.

As a mother of two grown children and four wonderful grandchildren, she enjoys painting in both acrylics and watercolors.  The artist can be reached at 516.708.5101.
