Museums for All

Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens joined the national Museums for All Program in 2023. The program is an initiative of the Institute for Museums and Library Services that exists to help broaden the availability of our top social institutions and mitigate the social and economic barriers faced by underserved communities.

The Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens is dedicated to creating a welcoming environment where all people can connect with nature. The addition of the deeply discounted Museums for All admission and membership rates tremendously increases the accessibility of MCBG for all guests, whether they live in our community or beyond. Engaging and enriching the lives of the broadest range of guests possible, including lower-income families, helps us to fulfill our mission. 

Museums for All discounts at the Gardens
Individuals and families presenting a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) EBT card or visitors with Women, Infants, & Children (WIC) cards can access the $2.00 "Museums for All" admission rate for up to 4 guests. The Gardens is also offering a "Museums for All Membership" for just $10 per year which provides free admission for two adults and children age 17 and younger. These discounted admission and membership rates are only available in person at the Gardens with SNAP EBT or WIC card, and a valid form of photo ID.
