The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston was founded in 1870. It is located on the historic Massachusetts homelands. This site has been a place of exchange and meeting for many years. On July 4, 1876, the nation celebrated its centennial, the MFA opened its doors. The MFA, which was built in Copley Square, housed 5,600 pieces of art. The Museum’s collection and visitors increased exponentially over the years. In 1909, it moved to Huntington Avenue.

The MFA is today one of the largest art museums in the globe. The collection contains nearly 500,000 pieces of art. Every year, we welcome over a million visitors to the MFA to enjoy art from ancient Egyptian to contemporary as well as special exhibitions and educational programs.

In recent years, the Museum has seen significant growth and changes. 2010 saw the opening of the Art of the Americas Wing. This Wing features four levels of American art, from ancient to modern. The Museum’s west wing was transformed into the Linde Family Wing of Contemporary Art in 2011. It features new galleries and learning and social spaces, as well as galleries that showcase contemporary art. New and improved galleries are constantly opening for the MFA collections.
