POCATELLO — The Idaho Museum of Natural History on the Idaho State University campus is hosting LOVE Your Museum Month with programming and a membership drive.

The museum has continued to thrive during the past two difficult years with creative, safe programming, and because of the dedication of our staff and the continued support of our members and donors. As we navigate the year to come, we will continue to offer interesting and safe events and strive to share Idaho’s natural history with our community. We invite you to join us by becoming a member.

Benefits of membership include unlimited museum admission for one year, a 10 percent discount at the museum gift shop, exclusive events and early access to events, and becoming a member of the ASTC Travel Passport Program. ASTC members receive free or reduced admission to 300-plus museums and science centers nationally and internationally.
