FAQ

Which Arizona museums take NARM?

Notable NARM participants in Arizona include Heard Museum, Phoenix Art Museum, Museum of Northern Arizona, Tucson Museum of Art, Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA) — a sample from the official roster; our map holds 21 Arizona rows in total. Your home membership must be at a NARM-qualifying level.

Does the ASTC 90-mile rule apply in Arizona?

Yes, everywhere: ASTC reciprocity only works when the science center you're visiting is 90+ miles from both your home science center and your home address — so Arizona Science Center is free for traveling members but not for locals. The lookup tool computes it for your ZIP.
