Let’s have some fun!  Boston Family Days are back!

Boston Family Days is an extraordinary public-private partnership between the City, corporate and philanthropic partners, and 23 of the City’s leading cultural institutions to help Boston school-aged children feel at home in places that can expand their learning and show them the world. Through Boston Family Days, all students who live in Boston (grades K-12 and Boston Pre-K) and two guests can explore many of the City’s cultural institutions for free on the first and second Sunday of each month until December 2026. In addition, Boston students and their families also have free access to live performances at Boston’s premier venues. Students who are registered for Boston Family Days will receive ticket reservation links and instructions from the City before the performances.  Get all the details here.
