SEAL Museum Offers Free Admission For Military

The National Navy SEAL Museum is pleased to join the National Endowment for the Arts in an exciting new initiative - the Blue Star Museum Program, a collaboration with Blue Star Families' Operation Appreciation. Blue Star Families is a non-profit organization that works to support America’s military families from all branches of the service. The goal of the program is to offer free admission to museums across the country for active duty military personnel (with military ID) and up to five family members. The initiative will began on May 28, 2010 and will extend through Labor Day, Sept. 6, 2010.

Over a million Americans have deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, more than 900,000 children have said goodbye to a parent at least once since the fighting began, many have endured two, three, four or more deployments. The Blue Star Museum program tells our nation’s military families that the arts community recognizes and honors their contribution, by opening the doors to our nation’s cultural treasures to those who have been serving so long and so faithfully.

Museum hours are Tuesday - Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday noon to 4 p.m. The National Navy SEAL Museum is located at 3300 N HWY A1A, Fort Pierce, FL 34949. For more information, call (772) 595-5845 or go to the website: http://www.navysealmuseum.com/
