Explore museums for free

Discover & Go provides free tickets to SoCal museums

Discover & Go is a partnership between libraries and Southern California cultural institutions. With a La Mirada public library card, you can reserve FREE family passes to explore museums and cultural attractions through the Discover & Go online portal.

Only adults ages 18 and over with a library card in good standing can reserve Discover & Go passes. Library card holders can have up to 2 active reservations at a time and can make reservations up to 3 months in advance. For example, if you make a reservation for a visit next month and another reservation for a visit this Saturday, you can make a new reservation as soon as your Saturday visit is complete. Having two active reservations will block you from making additional bookings for future dates.

All free tickets are first come, first served, until all tickets are exhausted for the month. New passes are released at the beginning of the month. It depends on the museum, but some family packs allow 4 people to attend. Please read the details of each museum to find out more.

Some venues have placed a 1-pass-per-year restriction and you will only be able to reserve those passes once per calendar year. Read all the details on each venue before making a reservation. The pass is only valid for the name and date on the pass. Valid photo ID is required.
