Youth 18 and under always receive FREE museum admission. The ICA is committed to providing access to the art and artists of our time—and we do this with the incredible support of our community.
Each year, the ICA welcomes nearly 7,000 youth visitors to the museum—for Play Dates, Teen Programs, school vacation weeks, tours, and art-making activities in our Bank of America Art Lab. While we are not able together as a group onsite, we are working hard to ensure that our virtual doors are open to the young people and families we serve, with online art-making activities and workshops modeled after ICA Play Dates; creative prompts for teens that are accessible remotely, with limited at-home resources; Virtual Teen Nights, and summer learning programs that are free for Boston Public School students.
As members, kids and teens 18 and under can visit the ICA for free and also invite a friend (their +1) for free! +1 Members are the first to know about FREE Teen Arts courses, Teen Nights, Play Dates, and more at the ICA! Find out more about +1 Youth and Teen Membership
The ICA is able to do this work with help and support from our members and visitors. These donations are 100% tax-deducible and provide critical funds for youth access, arts education, and learning. We couldn’t do it without you!
