The Fitchburg Art Museum is a regional art museum based in Fitchburg, Worcester County, Massachusetts, USA.
Founded in 1925 through a bequest of artist, collector, and educator Eleanor Norcross, the museum has 14 galleries showcasing American and European paintings, prints, and ceramics, as well as Egyptian, Classical, and pre-Columbian antiquities.
In 1995, the museum joined with Fitchburg Public Schools to create the Museum Partnership School where all classes are taught in the museum galleries through the study of the museum collection and studio art activities.
The collection includes John Singleton Copley's portrait Mrs.Charles McEvers and Rockwell Kent's Monadnock Afternoon.
