BANK OF AMERICA OFFERS MUSEUM OF WORK & CULTURE VISITORS FREE ADMISSION
ON THE FIRST WEEKEND OF EACH MONTH STARTING IN MAY.

May 2, 2008 – Woonsocket, RI

Bank of America has launched the 11th season of Museums on US.  This
program provides unparalleled access to some of the nation’s greatest
museums and cultural institutions.
 
The Museum of Work & Culture Co-Directors, Raymond H. Bacon and Anne D.
Conway have announced that for the seventh consecutive year, the Museum,
located in Woonsocket, Rhode Island, has been selected to participate in
the Bank of America Museums on US program.  Visitors to the Museum will
receive free admission every first weekend of the month throughout the
year by simply presenting their Bank of America card.  Additionally,
participants will receive 10% off their purchases in the Museum Store.

For the first time since the program was created, Bank of America ATM,
credit and debit cardholders will have the opportunity to gain free
admission to over 70 museums in 28 markets across the country during the
first Saturday and Sunday of each month beginning May 3 and 4. This
represents a major expansion over previous years, when cardholders could
only utilize the program during the month of May. 

Last year, Bank of America expanded the program to include museums in
California and Florida.  Based on customer demand and usage, the company
decided to further expand the program to enable more people to access to
some of the nation’s finest cultural institutions over the course of
the year. For more information on Museums on Us™ or Bank of America’s
