Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture Family Pass

Founded in 1916, the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture is the largest cultural organization in the Inland Northwest, serving more than 100,000 visitors a year. It is one of Washington state’s five Smithsonian affiliates and is accredited by the American Alliance of Museums. The museum resides in the historic Browne’s Addition neighborhood of Spokane, Washington.

Commonly referred to as the “MAC,” the museum preserves and cultivates the heritage of the Inland Northwest people through collections, exhibitions, and programs that bring their stories to life. The collection of Plateau Indian art and artifacts is the largest in the world; more than one million objects are maintained and preserved including fine art, artifacts, documents, photographs, and material culture from the Americas, Europe, and Asia.

The 1898 Campbell House is a 13,000-square-foot historic residence, designed by Kirkland Cutter, that provides a firsthand experience of life in Spokane at the turn of the 20th century.

Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture Family Passes are generously funded by the Library Foundation of Spokane County.
