If you receive benefits from the New Jersey Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Work First New Jersey (WFNJ), or the New Jersey Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), you are eligible for free or discounted tickets to cultural programs throughout the state through the Families First Discovery Pass program.

Families First Discovery Pass visitors use their Families First card or eWIC card to identify they are eligible. Discounts extend to Families First and eWIC cardholders and their family/household. However, the extent of the discount and the number of people eligible for the discount per card is up to each participating organization. Certain Special performances or exhibits may be exempt from the discount. Organizations may limit the number of spots available to cardholders if there is limited capacity for an event. Any payment due after the discount is applied should be paid with standard payment methods (cash, credit card).
