About this place

Families can walk through galleries showing ancient works alongside contemporary art, with both permanent displays and changing exhibitions.

School groups can arrange guided tours with advance notice, and the museum offers educational programs for children. Parking is available nearby, and there is a storage locker for backpacks.

If you are a member here

A membership to Museum of Art and Archaeology carries reciprocal admission, so the same card is worth free or discounted entry at other places in these programs.

Reciprocal programs are built for travel and most exclude places close to the one where you hold your membership, so this is worth the most when you are away from home. How reciprocal memberships work
