Worcester Art Museum is a GEM!

WORCESTER — Admission to the the Worcester Art Museum will be free during the month of August.

“Free August” includes access for everyone to special exhibitions, the permanent galleries, and WAM’s August programming — including Art + Market, tours, Art Carts, arms and armor demonstrations, and Nude Drawing in the Galleries.

“We are delighted to offer free access to WAM again this summer, thanks to The Kirby Foundation and United Bank,” said Matthias Waschek, the C. Jean and Myles McDonough director of the Worcester Art Museum, in an announcement.

“From our popular exhibition, ‘Reusable Universes: Shih Chieh Huang,’ which fuses technology and contemporary art to create an irresistible immersive environment, to all of the treasures in the permanent galleries, there is so much to see and do at WAM this summer,” Waschek said.
