The MFA

Boston's Museum of Fine Arts is located just off of the E Branch of the Green Line At the Museum of Fine Arts stop. It's super easy to find and a great way to spend the day. Youths (aged under 17) can get in free on weekends and holidays, and after 3 on weekdays, just make sure to take your IA or some form of ID for proof of birth. The MFA also has days where the entire museum is free to all visitors, such as Memorial Weekend.

Once you get your ticket, you can enter and renter as many times as you'd like in a day, so you could go and grab lunch somewhere nearby if you choose to. There is also a small park opposite the MFA with a Rose Garden if you just want to hang out there for a while.

The Museum is divided up into numerous different sections, separating art from around the world. If you spend the entire day, it is definitely possible to visit each and every gallery, however, if you're short on time you can just stop in where you feel like it. There are some temporary exhibits and some permanent ones, so it is definitely worth revisiting even if you have been before.

There is a huge range of artwork from ancient pieces form Greece and Egypt, as well as Contemporary pieces from this century. Whatever style of art you prefer you can definitely find it here.
