From Memorial Day through Labor Day, Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum will offer free admission to all active duty military personnel and their families, including National Guard and Reserve, through the Blue Star Museums program.

Vesterheim is participating in the program for the eighth year in a row.  It joins more than 2,000 museums in all 50 states in thanking military personnel and their families for their service and sacrifice.

The free admission program is available to any bearer of a Geneva Convention common access card (CAC), a DD Form 1173 ID card (dependent ID), or a DD Form 1173-1 ID card, which includes active duty U.S. military—Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, as well as members of the National Guard and Reserve, U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, NOAA Commissioned Corps—and up to five family members.

Blue Star Families is a national, nonprofit network of military spouses, children, parents and friends, as well as service members, veterans and civilians, dedicated to supporting, connecting, and empowering military families.
