Community program

For more than 20 years, as part of its Sharing the Museum accessibility program, the MMFA has been offering free activities for community groups in order to bring people together and make the benefits of art more accessible.

Workshops for Slowing Down

Admire the collection through fresh eyes with our Workshops for Slowing Down. These activities are essentially about sharing, and each person’s story or perspective brings a new dimension to the group’s reflections. The interactive tour is followed by a creative workshop, where you can give free reign to your creativity.

Recommended for ages 15 and up

Through art, we invite you to reflect on the ties that bind us to each other and to the world around us.
