Group Visits

All faculty bringing classes of ten or more students need to book their visits in advance. For more information or to make reservations online, visit Groups. Our University Members are admitted free of charge.

Please note that select galleries are closed for renovation and individual works may be unavailable.

MFA Ambassadors

The MFA Ambassador Program is an opportunity open to work-study eligible students at participating universities. Ambassadors provide on-the-spot customer service to MFA visitors throughout the building. They help visitors plan and navigate the Museum and offer guidance and interpretation. Positions begin in the fall semester and require a year-long commitment. For more information, please contact Katherine Irving (617-369-4058) or Linton Young (617-369-4312).

Made possible by the Susan and Digger Donahue Fund for the Ambassador Program and the Elisabeth K. Davis Communication Fund.
