Selected By: Indy

Institute of Contemporary Art has free admission every Thursday evening. Lets meet outside of the main entrance at 6:45PM.

About Institute of Contemporary Art
The Institute of Contemporary Art strives to share the pleasures of reflection, inspiration, provocation, and imagination that contemporary art offers through public access to art, artists, and the creative process.

The primary activities of the ICA are threefold:


  • To present outstanding contemporary art in all media, including visual art
    exhibitions, music, film, video and performance, that is deserving of public
    attention and has not been presented in depth to Boston audiences
  • To provide innovative experiential learning opportunities for people of all ages
    through direct encounters with artists and art making
  • To design interpretative programs that provide context, develop appreciation,
    and add meaning to contemporary art and culture

Where:
The Institute of Contemporary Art
100 Northern Avenue
Boston, MA 02210

When:
Lets meet outside of the main entrance at 6:45PM. I will send out my phone number to all RSVPs so that you can find the group.

Parking:
The ICA does not have a parking garage, however there is affordable paid parking available in lots near the ICA. However here is affordable parking in the area, but fewer spots may be available in lots immediately adjacent to the ICA after 5 pm. There is some on-street parking.

Public Transport:
Take the Red Line to South Station and transfer to the Silver Line Waterfront. The ICA is short walk from either World Trade Center or Courthouse station.

From World Trade Center Station
Exit left onto Congress Street. Walk one block to the corner of B Street and turn right, crossing Congress Street. Follow B Street for one block. At the corner of B Street and Seaport Boulevard cross the street and turn left. At the next corner, turn right onto Northern Avenue. The ICA is on the right. You will pass the entrance to Anthony’s Pier 4 and two parking lots before coming to the driveway leading to the ICA entrance.

From Courthouse Station
Exit the station onto Seaport Boulevard and follow it, walking away from downtown. Just before the first traffic light, there will be a pedestrian opening in the fence on your left—walk through it to the walkway that runs alongside the Chapel of Our Lady of Good Voyage. This will lead you to Northern Avenue. The ICA is across the street to the right at 100 Northern Avenue.

    There's also usually some open metered parking spaces circling the big lot across the street from the museum.
