FAM at Night (previously Free First Thursdays) will return when the Museum reopens on December 3, 2025.

During FAM at Night, the Museum is free for all visitors, 12 – 7 PM. From 3 – 5:30 PM, shop at the Fitchburg Farmers’ Market. At the Fitchburg Farmers Market on Free First Thursdays, you can use your SNAP benefits, Healthy Incentive Program (HIP), WIC, Senior Farmers Market Coupons, debit, credit, or cash thanks to Growing Places. The Market brings together the flavor and culture of Fitchburg through local agriculture, artists, craftsmanship, and community spirit.

The Fitchburg Farmers’ Market is managed by North Central Mass Farmers’ Markets.

FAM at Night is supported by an endowment given to FAM in memory of Martha Malm.
