MUSEUMS AT THE CROSSROADS
PASSPORT PROGRAM
The Museums at the Crossroads Consortium represents eleven diverse museums in Champaign County! What? You didn’t know that there were eleven museums? Most people don’t! Through this Passport Program, we encourage you to discover new museums and make return visits to old friends, because, as we say . . . . there is an “adventure in every direction!” How does it work? See the official rules below.
