The museum's four building complex features over 20,000 square feet of gallery and educational workshop space and includes the historic 'Cross Barn' built in 1883, and the impressive Simond's building completed in 1989.

Visitors can experience masterpieces in 12 beautifully designed galleries that feature American, European, African, Egyptian, Greek, Roman, Asian, and Pre-Colombian art.

Education
The Fitchburg Art Museum's programs encourage all to learn about the importance of world cultures, art history, and contemporary life. Art workshops for adults and children, tours for school groups, and educational resources for educators and families are available.

The museum was founded in 1925 through the bequest of artist, collector and Fitchburg native Eleanor Norcross (1854-1923). Her extraordinary talents and educational vision highlights her as an important pioneer in American social history.
