Museums for Immunity: Boosting Health & Safety in Our Community
January 16, 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
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.
NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY. FIRST COME. FIRST SERVE. Participants will be eligible to receive their first or second COVID-19 immunization or their booster – Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, and adult and pediatric Pfizer vaccines will be available – and flu vaccines for children and adults will also be offered! 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.
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).
The Florida Holocaust Museum will be offering a free family pass, good for one year to all participants receiving their vaccination.
