Hi Kat and all,

To obtain an access card from Art-Reach, you can go to this website
<http://www.accessphilly.org/> and follow the instructions. If you receive
the applicable state benefits, you are automatically eligible. If not, you
can purchase the card with a one-time payment, and receive four tickets of
2 dollar admission to over 80 arts and cultural organizations. The website
listed above has a link where you can view all the participating
organizations.

Thanks and let me know if you have any questions.
Simon
