The Albuquerque museum community has struggled for some time, and
continues to struggle, with a strategy for implementing a city-wide
Museum Pass system. This is where a visitor purchases a pass that allows
them into all--or a combination of--area museums at a discount from the
a la carte ticket prices.

The main obstacle has been identifying who handles fulfillment and how
they disburse revenue to a variety of unrelated entities (State,
Federal, City, private foundation, university).

Since I believe this sort of pass exists elsewhere, I am wondering if
anyone could share how this obstacle was overcome in your area and
suggestions for fairly painless ways to implement this program.

Thanks much,
