Saturday, March 24 Explore the creepy side of art
at the Museum of Fine Arts. Artists definitely have a dark side, and you’ll discover it at your peril while searching for skulls and skeletons,

Saturday, January 7; Saturday, February 25
A curator has been murdered and left a trail of clues connected with secrets in works of art at the Museum of Fine Arts. As your team
gathers answers about the art, you begin to piece together a sordid tale about greed, lust, pride, revenge and treachery. The murder victim knew too
much—and now it’s up to you to discover what drove one of four suspects to commit murder. To find out, you'll have to crack a secret code
left in the victim’s appointment
calendar. Can you figure out who dunnit? Learn more and buy
tickets
Saturday, January 21 Someone, or some thing, has
been bumping off museum staffers involved in the recent discovery of a long-lost invention by Benjamin Franklin that was supposedly used as part of a secret
ritual. Are the deaths caused by the invention, or part of the fabled “Curse of the Freemasons”? Or is a serial killer on the loose? Your
team of sleuths will have to crack a secret code and uncover the museum’s
secrets to solve the mystery and stop the killings. Learn more and buy tickets
