  • It was a small, but fun art museum with lots of rare artifacts(Egyptian& African)! We ended up spending over 2 hours with my kids(6 &10 years old). It was also very quiet so we could enjoy the art at the museum without any distraction.
  • Great midsized museum close to downtown Fitchburg. Parking is available on and off street. Admission is$9 for adults. There are multiple levels and buildings to the museum. They also showcase art made by students at local colleges, alongside rotating exhibits. I enjoyed their ancient Egyptian exhibit, and their displays on the history of Fitchburg’s paper mills
