Behind the Scenes
Friend and above level members are invited to Behind-the-Scenes visits for each exhibition. Curators provide insights into the art on view, followed by a reception. Members are always able to bring guests to these events.

Travel with the List
Traveling with the List Center is a key benefit of membership in the Director’s Circle, with annual domestic trips offered to Leader level members and above, and international trips available at the Presenter level and above. In the past, the List Center has traveled to North Adams, Marfa, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, as well as Berlin, Greece, Iceland, and Venice.

Studio Visits
The List Center organizes visits with Boston-based artists during the year as a way to introduce our members to the vibrant arts community in and around greater Boston. Typically, we host two outings each year in the spring and fall.

Exhibition Openings
Openings at the List Center are free and open to all, but members are invited to arrive early for a tour led by the artists and curators. Donors at the Presenter level and above are invited for the post-opening dinners.
