Genealogy club meets from 5-7 pm on the third Monday of each month in the Local History Room. No experience necessary. No expert on hand, but those who have been working on this for a while will help you get started, make use of the Library's resources, share ideas, and discover family stories.

We are also able to help virtually - email history@rowleylibrary.org with your questions.

Both Ancestry.com and HeritageQuest online can be accessed remotely. Visit our resources page for more suggestions.

Make sure you get a discount pass from us BEFORE purchasing your tickets! Museums are changing their plans as we speak, so please check their current policies on their web site.

We will soon be adding new museum passes! Check our Museum Passes page for our current offerings.

The Museum of Fine Arts: All visitors are required to reserve a timed-entry ticket for admission online. Get a library discount code to use online before you purchase your tickets. Get current information about their reopening from the MFA web site.

The Museum of Science is open and requires a timed-entry reservation. To receive the Library discount patrons will need to pick up the paper pass from the Library before making their reservation. The pass allows 4 people the discounted admission. Visit the MoS web site.

The New England Aquarium: Reservations must be made by phone or in person with your discounted Library pass. You may purchase 4 tickets at the discounted rate. Find current information on their web site here.

The Peabody-Essex Museum: Reserve your PEM library pass with us and then log into their ticket page to reserve a date and time to visit PEM. We will give you the web site and code for your discount (limited to 2 people) when you reserve your pass. Get more information about their opening plans at the PEM web site.

The Wenham Museum: Tickets must be reserved online - check their web site for more details. You will need to present the library pass at the door.

Zoo New England: Passes are now available for the Stone Zoo and Franklin Park Zoo. Online reservations are required.

The Boston Children's Museum Passes are available for Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays in the month of June. You will need a paper or electronic copy of the date-specific coupon before making a reservation for a timed visit. See the web site for their current hours.

We also have the State Parks Pass, which gives you free parking at all state parks. And you can now request it like a book in the catalog! Search "Parks Pass" to request it, and just drop it in the book return on your way home.

Thanks to the Friends of the Library, who support our museum pass program.

Our bi-monthly virtual meetings are now being held the first Wednesday of every even month, with the next one being held on August 4, 2021 at 7:00pm. Please email friendsboard@rowleylibrary.org for more information.
