Finally, back in the USA after ages in Europe and this is the first place that reminds me Im home! The Fitchburg Art Museum may not be the MET but it holds a spectacular range of culturally rich art pieces.
Fitchburg Art Museum is an amazing cultural experience in the heart of Fitchburg Mass. Exhibits change frequently --- so its never quite the same experience twice! Very unique and thought provoking art in varying medium. Always an event, opening, artist talk or Farmers Market on Free First Thursdays to attend. Highly recommend. Kids welcome and many activities for them also--- mine loves the Egypt room!
This museum is so cute and quaint, it is affordable I only paid $5 with a student discount. The exhibits are a mixture of local and world art, the staff is friendly and are knowledgeable on the art that is being displayed. It is child friendly, I noted dress up areas and a few games. I also give them a lot of credit for their bilingual approach by having the descriptions in both English and Spanish. Highly recommend!
Great museum! I enjoy stopping in here from time to time and always love it when they have new exhibits!
Our irst time experiencing the Fitchburg Art Musuem was amazing. Truly a hidden gem in the area. We took in the Spiritual Exhibition and were pleasantly surprised by the farmers market they were hosting. We will return!
I was very impressed with the facility and displays....More locals should come visit...
What a gem in downtown Fitchburg! This small Museum will still take you a few hours to go through. Many activities for younger children. Would like to see more activities for older children.Wonderful selection of art with different media. Sometimes parking can be a challenge, but it does have free parking
A wonderful, magical place for children of all ages, adults, and seniors. This facility has handicapped parking directly in front of the museum, wheelchair/walker accessibility, and elevators to various exhibits. The experience includes interactive activities for children and parents to share in together.You will see a diversified collection of contemporary art, abstracts, photography, and onsite sculptures, to name a few. Visit the permanent Egyptian Exhibit and Moving Objects of Oceana Dont miss the exquisite Eleanor Norcross exhibit; museum founder, painter, philanthropist, and so much more. I highly recommend the Fitchburg Art Museum as one of the overall best places to go where the whole family can enjoy themselves.
Very difficult to find.
Wonderful exhibits and presentations of quality art from past and present. Great job FAM!
They were great. Wonderful hands on things for kids! Very informed staff, knowledgable about the area, the museum, etc.
Went with friends. Very nice collection and well worth the time. I think 1st Thursday is no charge after 3
Went as a homeschool group. Toured ancient Egypt. Fascinating! Enjoyed by all, nice staff and great kids programs
Fabulous exhibits. Wish I had more time there. Friendly staff. Spacious rooms with very interesting and colorful exhibits...so beautiful. Cant wait to return!
Lots of interesting and informative exhibits
Wow, what a place! The market plan should be better becasue I never knew this existed and I have lived in the area since early 2000s. I went for an event, but was allowed to linger and wander. Very cool!
Great small museum. Well presented special installations.
A true gem! Expect the unexpected and check it out.
Better than I had expected. Well worth the trip. Sad I havent visited sooner.
A gem of a small-city museum notable for its legacy collection, art-education program, annual show of regional artists and excellent photography department.
Its a hidden little gem in the city.
Nice museum with local charm! It was admittedly small, but the exhibits were tasteful and well organized. Two of the exhibits were more geared toward children than I was expecting, but there was plenty for adults to enjoy as well!
Very good for a small town, will go again.
Treasures to be seen.
I would have given them a higher rating but the fact of feeling like i being followed had me a bit on edge. Museum was small but nice. We went during a time in which they were showing work from local artist in which i had the honor to meet one of them. Mr. Renfield was awesome.
Enjoyed exploring and seeing all the exhibits
The current exhibit at the Fitchburg Museum of Art is over the top. Not he old FAM that I remember. More than one visit for me (89yrs old) to take it all in. The Art in Bloom show is the most exciting ever. Many thanks to all the hard work and talent bringing a lovely welcome to Spring.
Beautiful historic building with a nice layout of exhibits
Many of the pieces on display were made by relatively local artists. Many of the subjects are of local interest (local buildings, etc) as well. Many art museums Ive visited become exhausting after a few hours. Fitchburg Art Museum is nicely sized and kept my interest throughout. The docents with whom we interacted were both friendly and knowledgeable. Tucked back where it is, it can be easily overlooked.
The Egyptian exhibit was fabulous for the kids. They could have spent an hour or more just in that section. I was impressed with the variety of exhibits for such a small museum. A surprisingly nice way to spend a few hours.
Surprisingly awesome! Very very impressive place and great staff!
Great Place!
It was nice but we went on a day they are changing exhibits around.
Did work here, very good place to visit, lots of art work
Lots of local artisans displays. Very enjoyable time.
Wonderful programs for young students
Small, but great exhibitions, even for non art fans. Great for kids
A cultural gem that serves as a beacon for artists and craftsmen in a rather isolated part of Massachusetts.
Decent place. Some really cool installations
I wished it opened earlier, we could only spend 1.5hrs here. Saw most of the exhibits
A small, well curated museum..
Amazing Egyptian exhibit. Had no idea anything like this existed outside cities loke Boston. Worth a days adventure.
Good place to explore
The special exhibits were fun and worth seeing
I am a member and award winning juror ed event photographer.
Nice art. Not a very large museum though.
Great sized gallery for the twin cities. Always changing with new displays.
Nice small Museum, good for children to experience various forms of art, children free admission.
A small museum with locally related exhibits and some items about ancient Egypt. Parking is free next to the building.
