I was told about a new privilege at the mystic aquarium. Is it true that if u have an E.b.t card u can admit up too 4 people free?

Yes

I think this is a very nice gesture of u guys they are single moms who do work hard to give their kids all but can't afford it!

Effective immediately and running through the end of next year, December 31, 2018, Connecticut SNAP EBT card holders will simply show their EBT card and valid, matching personal identification to receive free admission for themselves and up to four (4) guests. Additionally, card holders may purchase tickets for $5 each for up to three (3) additional guests in their party at the time of the visit. All children in the party under the age of five (5) will be admitted free of charge.

Some people work hard at low paying jobs and still qualify for snap benefits. Why shouldn't they have an opportunity to enjoy the aquarium like others who can afford it. I think it's a great idea.

I think that's awesome. Families that normally cannot afford it can take their kids to the Aquarium! And it's educational.

Website says all 50 states for this program and many other museums as well

We went with 8 people on one EBT card and all got in for free.

It has to be a Connecticut EBT only, no out of state. Which doesn't make sense if you're trying to get more visitors.
