Stories start here.

Spend an evening inside the reimagined MFA Collection, before it opens to the public on November 21. Unleash your curiosity with unexpected connections, artists unveiled, and moments unscripted. By bringing art from across cultures and centuries together around shared human experiences, our new thematic layout is sure to spark conversations.

In the Mary Alice McClendon Conservatory, DJ Nilla Green sets the mood with lively rhythms and infectious energy, while Café Clementine serves up a signature house-made spritz for adult guests, thoughtfully crafted for the occasion. Sip a curated selection of organic wines and local Green Bench beer, and enjoy an array of artfully prepared savory and sweet bites available for purchase during the café’s L’Apéro hours.

Come celebrate the next chapter of the MFA, where art is unbound!
