Case Western Reserve University students have a new passport to leisure-time activities around Cleveland. By presenting their Case student ID, they receive free admission to nine local cultural institutions and museums.

Free Access for Case Students is a new program, sponsored by the College of Arts and Sciences and the Office of Student Affairs, to enable students to explore Cleveland and share its wealth of cultural treasures during a study break, date or visit with the family.

Participating cultural arts organizations are: the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Western Reserve Historical Society and Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum, Cleveland Orchestra, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, Great Lakes Science Center, Cleveland Play House, The African American Museum and Museum of Contemporary Art.

While general admission to the art museum is free, Case students also can visit special exhibits at no cost by presenting their IDs.

Free admission to Thursday evening performances and selected special concerts
of the Cleveland Orchestra and free tickets to weekend performances at the Cleveland Play House will be available to students through a weekly drawing sponsored by the Office of Students Affairs.

Students may enter the drawings on Mondays and Tuesdays in person at 110 Adelbert Hall or via e-mail at orchestra@case.edu or playhouse@case.edu. The drawings will take place each Wednesday morning, with winners posted at noon, in the Office of Student Affairs.
