Visitors Center Schedule
The Center is open for self-guided tours while the church office is open, generally Monday through Friday between 10:30 am and 5:30 pm. Please enter through the downstairs door at 351 Boylston Street.
Since Arlington Street Church is an active Unitarian Universalist congregation, we are occasionally closed for special events and services. To confirm the Visitors Center hours for a specific date, please contact us.
Admission Cost
Admission is $5 per person, which includes a detailed brochure for the self-guided tour. There is no charge for children under 12 accompanying a paying adult.
Additional donations to support our preservation efforts are always welcome. We rely on the generosity of visitors like you to sustain this 160-year-old landmark building. Thank you!
Private Tours
If you are visiting with a group or interested in a custom tour experience, please contact us for information on private tour fees and availability. Please include the potential dates of your visit and the number of people in your party.
