Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the museum is operating under a highly restricted visitor capacity. All tickets must be purchases ahead of time through the Gardner’s website and entering will be on a timed ticket system. While in the museum, all must wear a face covering and maintain a safe six feet from other patrons. Wipes and hand sanitizer are available. To learn more, please visit our Know Before You Go page.

We’re open late and offering free admission on the first Thursday evening of each month! Stop by and soak in the beauty of the Gardner in a different light, 3 pm through 9 pm on the first Thursday of each month beginning in October.
