The Gibson House Museum is a landmark that serves as a perfect example of an early American home. The house was built in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood in 1860 and was home to three generations of the Gibson family. The Victorian-era home is complete with furnishings that echo the time period of its occupation.
Unconventionality at its finest is showcased at the Museum of Bad Art.

See bad art in all forms, from paintings to sculpture, photography and more.
