The Fitchburg Art Museum is a regional art museum in downtown Fitchburg, Massachusetts, serving the north-central Worcester County area. It functions as a community cultural institution with gallery exhibitions and educational programs.

Small to mid-sized galleries display rotating temporary exhibitions alongside the museum’s permanent holdings, and the institution runs public programs and classes for school and adult groups. Exhibition spaces and learning programs are the main draw rather than large-scale collections.

The museum was established to provide arts access to the local community and has operated in Fitchburg for many decades, adapting exhibition and education offerings over time. Governance and funding have included local and private support.

Located in central Fitchburg in north-central Massachusetts, the museum sits within the city’s cultural district and is roughly an hour northwest of Boston by car.

The museum is in downtown Fitchburg, Massachusetts. It’s accessible by local roads from Route 2 and Route 12; limited street parking and municipal lots are nearby. The nearest MBTA commuter rail access requires a local connection.
