I'm usually not the most enthusiatic museum guest, but I really enjoyed this one. The Monet exhibit was amazing! At the museum back home they had a Monet Exhibit, but it was nothing compared to this one. I am really glad I picked up the ticket for it, a must see. There is plenty else worth seeing, I wish I had more time than I did. This is one of the nicest art museums I have visited, I would highly recommend going here if you are visiting!
I admire this museum and have been their member for years! Everything they do is at the worldclass level! The permanent collection is incredible and presented very well!
Great temporary exhibitions! This time we visited "Claude Monet and Boston" and sculptures in the ancient Egypt.
I got to see rare Monet's paintings that I only have seen in books. The presentation and set up was incredibly interesting and gave lots of information!
Well worth the entry fee, as we spent hours enjoying the museum and still didn t get to everything! The cafe in the courtyard is gorgeous with the glass walls and the Chihuly sculpture. There s also a garden courtyard to sit outside and read or relax during your time at the museum.
We spent two hours and may have covered 10% of the total museum. Every part of the world has their own uniquely curated exhibits. So much to see and take in.
I don t particularly care for paying additional to see any of the special exhibits (such as Monet) because I think you get your money s worth with the general admission. Parking is unfortunately pretty expensive. I would recommend taking the train if possible. If you even have the slightest artistic inclinations, I recommend the museum! A truly memorable and visceral experience for me.
This was my first ever visit to the museum and I was so impressed. Parking was super easy. We had tickets for the Monet Exhibit which was breathtaking. We went to many other areas, too and we thoroughly enjoyed all the incredible art work. We were in awe the whole time. I think my favorite was the Egyptian section. We also had lunch at the Cafe in the museum and the service and food were on point! We have to go back to see the rest of the displays that we didn't get to. Can't wait to visit again!
Wow this place is really really cool. We only got to spend a little bit of time here but we will most certainly be back. They had a wonderful lunch area. The art exhibit are absolutely amazing. Highly recommend it it
What an amazing museum. Favorite exposition was the Egyptian, full of history and lots of mummys. Other expositions were full of art and history. Kid, teenager, and adult friendly.
This place was wonderful! I was so impressed with how everything was set up. It is simply an artistically beautiful place to spend a couple hours gazing at some of the most beautiful paintings, etc. If you make it to Boston, this is a must see stop!
The MFA is one of my favorite museums in Boston. Students can get in for free with a student ID. My favorite exhibits are the contemporary art and ancient Egypt exhibits. This museum may take another visit to see everything. On my most recent visit, there was an exhibit designed by a local black artist. It was absolutely breathtaking. I would definitely recommend the MFA for anyone interested in art.
This had to be one of the best museums I've ever visited, the art collection is mind boggling, you can find at least one piece of art masters from different eras and countries. Their archeology collection is amazing, ranging from African cultures, to American, middle eastern, Asian and Egyptian. If you're in Boston, visit the museum, you'll be surprised. P.S. make sure to research if there is any special exhibitions, there vas a Monet/Rodin while I was visiting and it was amazing. Also, there is a very nice cafeteria and of the weather allows, make sure to have lunch outside in the garden, peaceful and serene.
