Free First Thursdays

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.

Advance registration is encouraged for free timed entry tickets for Museum general admission. Registration opens two weeks before the event for the general public and four weeks in advance for members. 

Limited tickets will be available in-person at the Museum’s main entrance, starting at 3 pm, the day of the event. Please note that day-of tickets are not guaranteed.
