Item Description

Enjoy a year-long Family Membership to Fitchburg's renowned art museum along with a gift bag that includes two postcards, two coffee mugs, and the retrospective DVD Masterpiece in a Mill Town.

The Fitchburg Art Museum is one of the most treasured cultural institutions in Central New England and serves the cities of Fitchburg and Leominster and surrounding communities in North Central Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire. The Museum collection features exhibits on ancient Egyptian, Roman, Greek, Contemporary American, and African art.

Their current exhibition, naturetech, spotlights three Massachusetts artists - Nathalie Miebach (sculpture), Cristi Rinklin (painting), and Michelle Samour (mixed media) - whose colorful, data-driven artworks are fueled by collisions of art, nature, science, and technology.  Miebach, Rinklin, and Samour each employ unique, abstract visual vocabularies that prompt questions about the natural world and offer exquisite, awe-inducing ways to observe, organize, depict, and understand it. The exhibition runs through June 7, 2015.
