FAQ

Which Missouri museums take NARM?

Notable NARM participants in Missouri include The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, The Saint Louis Art Museum, Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, World Chess Hall of Fame — a sample from the official roster; our map holds 12 Missouri rows in total. Your home membership must be at a NARM-qualifying level.

Does the ASTC 90-mile rule apply in Missouri?

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 Saint Louis Science Center is free for traveling members but not for locals. The lookup tool computes it for your ZIP.
