The original MFA opened its doors to the public on July 4, 1876, the nation's centennial. Built in Copley Square, the MFA was then home to 5,600 works of art. Over the next several years, the collection and number of visitors grew exponentially, and in 1909 the Museum moved to its current home on Huntington Avenue.
Today the MFA is one of the most comprehensive art museums in the world; the collection encompasses nearly 450,000 works of art. We welcome more than one million visitors each year to experience art from ancient Egyptian to contemporary, special exhibitions, and innovative educational programs.
Still have not seen all the exhibits. But have seen some amazing ones

I love a lot of the museums that are listed here (and don't know why the Rose Museum at Brandeis is not--among others). But if I was told I could only have one, it would be the MFA, despite tacky recent directors and uninspired contemporary art collecting.

Love the classics that you can always find... but their special shows are always great
