Need a Ride?
Arts Access Passholders can arrange transportation for FREE.
Arts Services Inc.'s Arts Access program aims to break the barriers of inaccessibility to the region's arts and culture sector. These barriers often include money, transportation, and knowledge of events.
We partner with local theaters, galleries, and other arts and culture organizations to offer free or reduced-cost opportunities to low-income Western New York residents and their families.
LSA is a partnering organization only. Please contact Arts Access directly with any questions regarding the pass or transportation.
