Lubbock’s American Wind Power Center will offer free admission to the museum for active military personnel and their families beginning Memorial Day and continuing through Labor Day.

Normal admission is a suggested five dollar donation per person or ten dollars per family. The free admission season is part of the launch of Blue Star Museums, a partnership involving the National Endowment for the Arts, Blue Star Families and more than 1,300 museums across the country.

Blue Star Museums is a program aimed at showing appreciation to military families for their service to the nation, and at the same time helping young people start on a path to become life-long museum goers. Lubbock’s American Wind Power Center is located at 1701 Canyon Lake Drive.
