Art and Culture in Boston

"With nearly 500,000 pieces ranging from photographs to textiles, jewelry, musical instruments, prints, drawings, and more, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts spans continents and time, displaying works dating from ancient Egypt to modern day. The MFA is open seven days a week, except major holidays, and you’ll find numerous free gallery tours, talks, and drop-in activities. Make sure to check the Arts of the Americas Wing for a deep dive into Boston artists, as well as Native American art. Some highlights of the museum include Childe Hassam’s impressionist rendering of At Dusk: Boston Common at Twilight, and Dale Chihuly’s stunning Lime Green Icicle Tower adjacent to the New American Café, serving fresh, seasonal appetizers, salads, and entrees made with local ingredients." - MATADOR_NETWORK
