Passport to the Queen City is a year long program at Charlotte Museum of History that enables us to learn more about the many people who make up Charlotte’s unique cultural landscape. Throughout the year, participants will:
• Encourage the continued development of courage, empathy, and compassion
• become better prepared to be successful in a multicultural world by learning cultural relativity and sensitivity
• cultivate critical thinking and leadership skills necessary for an informed, engaged, and empowered community
• develop new skills including the ability to synthesize and evaluate information all while making new friends
• build civic pride in Charlotte’s rich history
Kids ages 5 to 12 can pick up a CMH Passport to Charlotte at the Museum. They will receive stamps for each program they attend, with most of the programs being offered free of charge. Upon completing 75% of the passport, kids will receive a CMH prize celebrating our diverse global city.
Most of these events are free.
Some may require museum admission, which is $10 for adults, $7 for kids 6-17, and free for kids under 6 and for Museum members. Admission is $7 for senior citizens and $5 for military members.
