The Museums on Us program promotes culture, art, and science by giving folks free entry into participating museums and cultural centers nationwide. You just need a Bank of America (or Merrill Lynch) debit or credit card!
Qualifying cards include:
- Bank of America Alaska Airlines (Personal)
- Bank of America Alaska Airlines (Business)

This is a great deal for folks who are traveling this weekend or looking for ways to save on entertainment.
If you’re in Portland, you could stop by the Portland Japanese Garden. And in Las Vegas, you could check out the DISCOVERY Children’s Museum.
