22 Museums In Placer County Offering Free Admission This Summer
AUBURN (CBS13) - All 22 museums in Placer County will offer free admission on certain Saturdays this summer.
The museums will be grouped geographically so people can visit numerous museums in a day. The featured museums will have live music, historical re-enactments, and chances at raffle prizes. Students can participate in a summer-long scavenger hunt in order to earn prizes.
