MUSEUM PASS
OF THE MONTH

---

As soon as you step inside the Edward M. Kennedy Institute, you are greeted as a U.S. Senator. You’ll interact with a variety of digital exhibits related to the Senate’s history, explore replicas of the U.S. Senate Chamber and Senator Kennedy’s Washington, D.C. Russell Senate office, and take part in a live vote on the Senate floor. You’ll learn about the work that Senators really do and practice the skills needed to be successful.
