What
On Sunday, January 16, 2022, five St. Petersburg museums are coming together to boost the health and safety of our community during our first ever Museums for Immunity event. In partnership with the Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County, the Center for Health Equity, and the City of St. Petersburg’s Healthy St. Pete initiative, these museums are bringing FREE COVID-19 vaccines to the public at each site.
Participating organizations are offering exciting incentives such as complimentary museum passes and other goodies to encourage the public to stay healthy and enjoy St. Petersburg’s diverse cultural and social amenities. Additionally the Florida Department of Health is providing $15 food vouchers (while supplies last).

Museum admission is not required for this free community health event.
Anyone meeting the CDC’s COVID-19 immunization eligibility requirements is encouraged to participate. Questions about vaccine eligibility may be directed to the Florida Department of Health in Pinellas County at (727) 824-6900 or pinellas.floridahealth.gov/. Members of the public are asked to bring their current vaccine card with them to the location of their choice.
Officials from each of the participating museums and organizations hope that this event will help to make vaccines accessible to everyone in our community and increase vaccination success in St. Petersburg. These steps will help to ensure that all museums, cultural sites, and community gathering spaces are able to keep our doors open and continue welcoming visitors for daily admission, educational tours, special programs, and events.
