In partnership with Citizens, admission to the MFA—including access to “Van Gogh: The Roulin Family Portraits”—is free for all Massachusetts residents on June 19 in honor of Juneteenth, the oldest nationally observed commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States.

Join us for performances, participate in art-making activities, catch a talk, and see “Van Gogh” a new exhibition dedicated to the Roulin portraits and the deep bonds of friendship between the artist and this family.
