You've had it with class and grace. If you see another Monet you're going to have nightmares about killer water lilies. Why not cleanse your palate at the Museum of Bad Art outside of Boston?

Founded by Scott Wilson after he discovered a cache of bad art by the side of the road, the museum now owns some 250 cringe-worthy works and has a public gallery in downtown Dedham. Bet you can't look at just one! Too late -- you already did (above, "Lucy in the Field With Flowers"). And in case you've already been burned by high-price tickets to Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, cheer up: It's free.

Open Monday-Friday 2-10 p.m., Saturday, Sunday and Holidays 1-10 p.m. $0.
