How to Enroll

How do I apply for the Access Pass Program?

Access Pass enrollment is available online through the Access Pass website at childrensmuseum.org/access-pass. You can also apply in person at any partner institution (except for the Indiana Repertory Theater and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum).

Where can I find the Access Pass application?

If you apply online you’ll fill out the application electronically. You can also download the application (in both English and Spanish) from the Access Pass website (childrensmuseum.org/access-pass)and submit it in person. Most partner organizations have printed copies at their box office/front desk areas.

What do I need to apply for the Access Pass Program?

You need two things:

  1. Proof of enrollment in one of the qualifying programs:
    • Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) Notice of Eligibility Determination.
    • Proof of Eligibility letter issued by the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration for HIP, Hoosier Healthwise, SNAP, or TANF. The letter must be issued in the primary adult cardholder’s name and verify program enrollment for the current year.
  2. Indiana state-issued photo ID card—either a driver’s license or state identification card. The name on the photo ID must match an adult name on the letter. Employee or student IDs and out-of-state IDs are not accepted.

When applying in-person, bring the above listed items with you. If you apply online, upload the required documents when prompted during the application process. The online system accepts document and photo file formats, such as jpg and pdf files.

Where do I find acceptable forms of proof of eligibility for qualifying programs?

• CSFP, contact the local agency (food bank or cicoa.org) for a copy.

• Hoosier Healthwise, HIP, SNAP, and TANF – Use the Indiana Family Social Services Administration (FSSA) Benefits Portal (fssabenefits.in.gov). Visit the Access Pass website for a step-by-step guide on how to obtain your verification of benefits. You can also see examples of the Proof of Eligibility letter on the Access Pass website.

How do I use my Access Pass?

Simply show your Access Pass card to the front desk/box office staff along with your Indiana stateissued photo I.D. to receive $2 admission per household member, per visit. You do not have to show any other proof of eligibility after you enroll and receive your card.
