We are pleased to participate for the second year in Free Fun Friday, supported by the Highland Street Foundation. The day’s free activities for children and adults will include gallery talks, guided tours of the first floor that highlight the Athenæum’s history and special collections, and stories and crafts in the children’s library.


Registration is not required.

The Athenæum's five galleried floors overlook the peaceful Granary Burying Ground, and, as Gamaliel Bradford wrote in 1931, "it is safe to say that [no library] anywhere has more an atmosphere of its own, that none is more conducive to intellectual aspiration and spiritual peace." The building was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1966.
