About MABA

The Museum of American Bird Art at Mass Audubon (MABA) is a professional art museum within New England’s largest conservation organization, connecting people and nature through art. Our exhibitions feature art by internationally recognized artists inspired by nature.

Located on a 121-acre wildlife sanctuary just south of Boston, MABA houses Mass Audubon’s extensive art collection, which is shared with the public through exhibitions as well as through a wide variety of education programs.

Things to See & Do

Try something new! MABA's classes and workshops include hands-on art programs in drawing, photography, watercolor, and other mediums; gallery talks; and nature exploration. We also offer activities for families as well as programs for schools; child and teen groups; and adult community groups.

Looking to turn your child's out-of-school time into outdoor time? MABA's offers drop-off Vacation Week programs for ages 5-13 in December and April, and our Wild at Art Summer Camp welcomes campers ages 4-15 from June through August.

Wildlife Sanctuary

In addition to the Gallery, visitors may explore our 2 miles of trails that wind through a meadow, forest, and red maple swamp. We've got all kinds of fun activities for families so you can have your own outdoor adventures! Or bring your camera and come early in the day to make use of the bird photography blind.
