HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Cosmosphere will provide two free summer programs to Cosmosphere’s Hall of Space Museum.
Blue Star Museums, a program of the National Endowment for the Arts and Blue Star Families, offers free admission to the Hall of Space for active duty military personnel and their families. The program began on Armed Forces Day, and continues through Labor Day. Adults with military ID — both veterans and active duty — will also receive year-round discounts on all Cosmosphere attractions.
Also this summer, Sunflower Summer provides school-aged kids and up to two accompanying adults access to Cosmosphere’s Hall of Space Museum at no charge between May 28 and Aug. 14. Students ages 4-18 and up to two adults per student can receive free admission through the Sunflower Summer app.
“We had a blast welcoming thousands more visitors to the Cosmosphere from across Kansas during Sunflower Summer last year,” Cosmosphere president and CEO Jim Remar said. “We can’t wait to see even more families this year.”
Sunflower Summer is a program of the Kansas State Department of Education. To get started, parents and guardians need to download the Sunflower Summer app free from either Google Play (Android) or Apple (iOS) app stores.
As an added “thank you,” Sunflower Summer guests receive 10% off their purchase in Cosmosphere’s gift store (autographed items not included).
Tickets to Cosmosphere’s other venues can be purchased separately at the Cosmosphere Box Office or online at cosmo.org.
