All BMA galleries will be closed on Saturday, Nov. 23 to prepare for the evening's BMA Ball and After Party, celebrating the Museum's 110th Anniversary. See our November gallery closures.

To our visitors,

We are deeply disappointed to share this news. We will be keeping our galleries closed to the public through Sunday, December 26. We will be reopening on Wednesday, Dec. 29.

While our galleries will be closed, the BMA Shop will be open on Dec. 22 and Dec. 23, reopening on Wednesday, Dec. 29.

Gertrude’s Chesapeake Kitchen will be open on Dec. 22, Dec. 23, and Dec. 26.

We pride ourselves on offering visitors excellent artistic experiences in a safe environment for everyone. Given the current surge in positive COVID cases, we need a moment to step back and ensure our staff is ready to serve Museum visitors. We think cautiously is the best way to move forward right now.

We are looking forward to welcoming guests back on Dec. 29. Please see below for guidance on refunds for A Modern Influence and how to rebook tickets or timed-entry passes.
