The MFA Invites You
The MFA invites you to extraordinary evenings with outstanding figures in their fields, including poetry, literature, music, film, architecture, and theater. This year the MFA presents a one-day Shapiro course on contemporary art, What's Up with Contemporary Art?, led by visual artists, an art critic, and MFA curators. In addition, two programs—Branford Marsalis and Hal Prince—feature live musical performances. Purchase your tickets early—each series has been a sold-out success.
