Lovely visit! Easy to maneuver and very welcoming.

Published on May, 2023

We spent a night outside of Houston before a graduation ceremony in College Station and really enjoyed our recent trip to the Museum! Parking in the garage was easy and it linked to the museum complex through indoor passages. The museum was a nice size, and we happened to be there on Thursday, when it was open late and was free —which was much appreciated after the fairly high entrance fee at the Johnson Space Center. It was nice to see many young people there enjoying the museums, too. The employees were all very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend a visit here! We also visited the contemporary art building. I like to visit museums whenever I travel and this was really nice.

Great museum

Published on May, 2023

The museum is located downtown Houston in the Museum District. Good parking options are available within a short walking distance. We visited on a Thursday, where admission to the collections is free. The museum is situated in several buildings and the collections are substantial, so it is possible to spend several hours here. We enjoyed our visit very much and would definitely recommend a visit here.

The New Kinder Building Rocks

Published on Jan, 2021

We visited the new Kinder building at MFAH today! What a great experience. I visited with my two daughters; one was visiting from overseas. The desk off of parking was closed, so we entered through the other building and crossed the Turrell bridge into the main (older) part of the museum and then low and behold there is a really cool “rainbow” tunnel that takes you into the new Kinder building. A description from the MFAH website: The Nancy and Rich Kinder Building contains both departmental and cross-departmental galleries. This approach will allow visitors to not only delve into the materials, geographies, and art forms in which modern and contemporary art have developed, but also to explore the ways in which varied artistic ideas, styles, and themes have transcended those boundaries. The multiple stories of modern and contemporary art-making are articulated throughout the building. What a wonderful space! We were drawn from this area into a light are installment to the left & did not realize we needed to take elevators up to 3 more floors of the Kinder building. The place is huge and filled with fantastic artwork, photography and contemporary pieces. It was a magical mystery art tour. Each section was a wonderful discovery. Totally worth the price of general admission that includes the new building. Masks are required at this time due to Covid. There is a temperature check upon entry. You may purchase in advance; we were walk ins. Hand sanitizer provided throughout. Unfortunately a few sections of the new area; most notably the Infinity Light Room by Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, were closed because of Covid. We were able to see a new Turrell installment. I was having some back issues and therefore rather than take the escalator in the main building or the stairs in the Kinder, we used the elevators. May not have been the best choice in Covid times, but they were large and we had them all to ourselves. This is the second time we have visited MFAH since Covid became an issue. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to see this fantastic new building and felt that all the necessary precautions were taken to make it as safe as possible. Afterward we walked through the outdoor sculpture garden.

Great Way to Spend a Day

Published on Oct, 2020

I was pleasantly surprised at how big this museum was an how diverse its holding were. While it doesn't necessarily have the biggest names in art, the art on display is really quite beautiful. It wasn't crowded when we went at all and was really an enjoyable experience overall.

Great museum. Great experience for entire family

Published on Feb, 2020

Great way to spend a few hours. Reasonable admission. The permanent collection is great and varied. Plenty to keep adults and kids entertained. Events every weekend for kids. Easy access to parking near-by. Beautiful area with parks and other attractions within walking distance. This museum has amazing temporary exhibits (Van Gogh, Rockwell, etc.) --- always check the museum's calendar to see what is scheduled. Definitely worth the time.
