Join us to celebrate Vincent van Gogh’s birthday on March 30!

Grab a cupcake, get your portrait drawn by local artist Nick Shea (best known for his pop-ups on the Boston Common), and be among the first to see our new exhibition “Van Gogh: The Roulin Family Portraits” on its opening day.

Cupcakes will be served at 11 am (while supplies last) in the Shapiro Family Courtyard.

Nick Shea’s pop-up will take place from 11 am to 3 pm—portraits are on the house! Getting your index card portrait done by Nick is a truly cool Boston thing to do!

Please note that timed-entry tickets are required to see the new exhibition: Van Gogh: The Roulin Family Portraits.
