Thursdays at the Gardner

Escape the ordinary—and the cost of admission—every Thursday evening, starting in July.

With complimentary admission offered from 5 to 9 pm, Free Thursday Nights are a chance to connect with fellow art lovers and embrace possibility. Whether you're new to the city or a local Gardner devotee, join us as often as you like, as each visit becomes a new opportunity to meet others and get creative in a space of belonging and exploration. Bring a date, bring a friend, or come by yourself—let the Gardner Museum be your respite, art studio, and home away from home on Thursday nights.

Advance registration is highly recommended for free, timed entry. Registration for each Free Thursday Night opens two days before, on Tuesday at 10 am. Day-of tickets are not guaranteed.
