The Oglethorpe University Museum of Art will once again join museums nationwide in the annual Blue Star Museums program, which offers free admission to the nation’s active-duty military personnel and their families throughout the summer.
Blue Star Museums is a partnership among the National Endowment for the Arts, the U.S. Department of Defense, Blue Star Families, and museums across America.
The 2023 Blue Star Museums program starts on Armed Forces Day (Saturday, May 20) and run through Labor Day (Monday, September 4).
Current OUMA exhibitions “Creating Conscious Conversations of Consequence” will be on view through July 30 and “Indian Miniatures from the Mehta Collection” through June 25.
This summer’s “Yehimi Cambrón: Documenting the Undocumented in the South” will open June 23 and run through October 15, 2023.
The free admission program is available to any bearer of a Geneva Convention common access card (CAC), a DD Form 1173 ID card (dependent ID), or a DD Form 1173‐1 ID card, which includes active duty U.S. military—Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, as well as members of the National Guard and Reserve, U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, NOAA Commissioned Corps—and up to five family members.
