Calling all curious!


Bring your family and friends and join us for our Community Day open house on Saturday, September 21, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.


Activities include up-close views of the Athenaeum’s special collections and rare books, a hands-on bookmaking activity, live music from local artists, and remarkable views of the city from the Athenaeum’s iconic fifth-floor reading room and outdoor terraces. The Athenaeum’s children’s library will host story times and activities. 


Registration optional.


If you’ve ever asked yourself, “What's an Athenaeum?” or walked by 10 ½ Beacon Street and wondered about the unique address or the swinging red doors, Come On In! Community Day is one of the most fun, lively ways to find out. Get ready for an incredible journey filled with discovery (and some surprises.)


Explore all five floors and :

The Athenaeum is a unique combination of library, museum, and cultural center, a member-supported, not-for-profit institution that everyone is invited to join. Our members, visitors, and staff come from all backgrounds and all the neighborhoods of Boston and surrounding communities, united by our curiosity about literature, culture, art, ideas, and the world.


We can’t wait to meet you!
