Polk Museum of Art Press Release:
Polk Museum of Art is proud to announce an agreement with MIDFLORIDA Credit Union that will enable the Museum to offer free admission
to everyone on Saturdays year-round. Admission will be waived for all
visitors to the Museum on every Saturday, beginning August 3.
MIDFLORIDA is underwriting the cost of Saturday admissions as part of a newly extended partnership agreement.
With this new agreement, MIDFLORIDA becomes the first of the Museum’s
new corporate partners. The Museum anticipates establishing six to eight
such partnerships over the next five years, and each of the corporate
partners will be able to specify which day of the week they want to
sponsor.
“Having MIDFLORIDA become our first
corporate partner is so fitting, because it has been a major supporter
of the Museum all these years,” said Claire Orologas, PMoA Executive Director. “And as for free admission, anything we can do that makes the Museum more accessible is important for our community and for our commitment to public service.”
MIDFLORIDA has a long-standing
partnership with the Museum and has been the title sponsor of MIDFLORIDA
Mayfaire by-the-Lake since 2009. In addition to Mayfaire and Saturday
admissions, the credit union will be a sponsor of exhibitions in the
Student Art Gallery; Family Day; Red, White & The Blues and the Museum’s new Fall for Art Festival.

I love these partnerships that benefit everyone. And free admission to museums is a growing trend that I hope continues. GL
