The El Paso Museum of History is proud to be a Blue Star Museum. The program offers complimentary museum admission to active duty military personnel and their families, including National Guard and Reserve, between Armed Forces Day and Labor Day. Although our museum is free year-round, we are proud to take part in this program as an expression of gratitude to service members and a reminder that the military community is welcome at our facility.
