A new way to experience the Museum

Introducing MFA Mobile, a free downloadable app where visitors can access information, maps, and interpretive content on their smartphones.

A tour of “Writing the Future: Basquiat and the Hip-Hop Generation” is available now. Exhibition texts are accessible both on the app and on the gallery walls, allowing visitors to choose the way they want to experience written interpretation.

In November, the app will offer tours for the exhibitions “Monet and Boston: Lasting Impression” and “Cézanne: In and Out of Time.” In addition to written content, the Monet tour will include ten audio stops by curator Katie Hanson.

The app is best experienced on a smartphone. Download it directly from Apple’s App Store, the Google Play Store, or access it by searching for “MFA Mobile.” You can also access it directly on the web.
