Max,

Yes these free passes are very popular. In Toronto I’ve heard of people lining up at 5am to get a free pass.

The amount of money you can save is incredible, and really I probably wouldn’t go to all these facilities if I had to pay. The idea of 2 weeks cramming in as much culture for free sounds awesome BUT the wait list is huge! I calculate my wait will be around 2 and a half years. Oh well, it’s easy to place a hold on the VPL website, so you can just set it and forget it. The library notifies you when your turn is up (I’m sure I will have forgotten about it by then!) so it will be a pleasant surprise.

Seattlegirluw,

Apparently these passes are super popular here, some libraries have lineups on Saturday mornings to get them.

We always mean to — the science center especially looks cool — but we just never get around to it.

Tawcan,

Woah that’s one heck of a wait. In Toronto it’s first come, first serve or a lottery so it’s not too bad.

Tonya,

Yes definitely worth investigating. I really need to get to the library more.

I guess I lot of people know about this free pass.

I know I recently dissevered that there TONS of free online classes you can take through the LA public library system. I love free education!
