  • 2 pieces of official mail showing proof of residency (i.e. recent bank statement, utility bill, insurance card, pay stub)

In order to receive free admission, residents must meet the following requirements:

  • Must live within these boundaries: W. Arthington St. to the north, Central Park Ave. to the west, W. 24th St. to the south, and Western St. to the east (see map below).
