CityLink and Peoria Riverfront Museum Partner in December 2023 to Offer Passengers Free Entry Opportunity

CityLink and the Peoria Riverfront Museum are partnering for the second time in 2023 in the month of December to offer a free entry opportunity for CityLink, CityLift and CountyLink passengers who present a bus pass or ticket for one of these services.  Passengers simply show their bus pass/ticket at the museum’s admission desk to gain free general entry to the museum in December.  One bus pass/ticket is required per adult.  Please note that this promotion does not include entry to the special exhibitions that require an additional entry fee, including the “BODY WORLDS RX” exhibition.

“Riding CityLink, CityLift or CountyLink gets you free entry to the Peoria Riverfront Museum in the month of December.  We are pleased to partner twice in 2023 with this great local institution that is the only American Alliance of Museums (AAM) Accredited museum of art, history, science and achievement in the nation.”
