News & Events

We are excited to be on the brink of sharing the highlights of our art collection online. In September we welcomed Greta Russell to manage the migration of our 30-year-old art collection database to a Cloud-based collections management system.

MABA has received a special grant from the Nuttall Ornithological Club (NOC) to digitize a collection of photographic images taken in the late 1880’s through early 1990’s by William Brewster, who served as Mass Audubon’s first president from 1896 through 1913. The digital images will then be available for public access online.

MABA’s art collection is notable for its breadth and quality, and gifts such as these enable us to continually expand and improve.

You may see some new faces on your next visit to a Mass Audubon Metro South sanctuary! We're thrilled to welcome four new members to our amazing team.

There are exciting developments on the horizon for the Museum of American Bird Art.

Thanks to the generosity and vision of a longtime local family, MABA has grown by nearly three acres! The new addition features a lovely series of rapids on Pequit Brook, which parallels the sanctuary's Main Loop Trail.

This innovative, grant-funded project will enable MABA to create a welcoming community space where students and other visitors can create and discuss collaboration with a focus on science, the environment, and art.
