State Senator Jil Tracy is inviting residents of the 50th District to use her Free Constituent Resource Card. This card offers free access to over a dozen museums and parks in the Chicagoland area.

“With summer in full swing, families are often looking for affordable ways to explore and spend time together,” said Senator Tracy. “This is just one of the many resources my office provides to help the people we serve enjoy opportunities Illinois has to offer. With convenient access by car, train, or plane, it’s a wonderful chance to make lasting memories, for free.”

The participating venues for 2025 include Adler Planetarium, The Art Institute of Chicago, Brookfield Zoo, Chicago Botanic Garden, Chicago Children’s Museum, Chicago History Museum, DuSable Black History Museum and Education Center, The Field Museum, Griffin Museum of Science and Industry, Illinois Holocaust Museum and Education Center, Lincoln Park Zoo, Museum of Contemporary Art, National Museum of Mexican Art, National Museum of Puerto Rican Arts and Culture, Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum and John G. Shedd Aquarium.

The pass is provided by the Museums in the Park organization. It can be used by groups of up to four people at a time and can be reserved year-round when locations are open.

Residents interested in reserving a pass can submit a request online at senatorjiltracy.com/museum-pass-request or call Senator Tracy’s district office at 217-223-0833 for more information.
