Boston is full of museums dedicated to art.
Many people expect to see the most interesting works at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston in the gallery wings. However, that changed recently when a group of artists turned two bathrooms into an impromptu exhibit, according to WBUR.

The event occurred on a Wednesday night when the museum was crowded due to free admission. Approximately a dozen artists were able to sneak into a men's and women's room to set up shop in a matter of 15 minutes. The "Best of Boston" exhibit lasted only 20 minutes before security began to take the artwork down, but it managed to draw large crowds before it was over.

If you missed the unplanned event, don't worry - Boston has several museums with plenty of art to offer throughout the year. In addition to the Museum of Fine Arts, visitors can explore the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum to see a wide collection of artifacts from around the world.

If art isn't your thing, take a trip to the Museum of Science with your loved one. The facility is now offering Segway tours of the city, along with exhibits that rotate year-round.
