Ways to Enjoy Your Visit
Fun Things to Do at the Museum of Fine Arts Houston
Walk Through the Light Tunnel
Experience James Turrell's underground light installation, one of the biggest highlights of any MFAH visit. You and your family will be captivated by near-total darkness, neon colors that constantly shift, and the tunnel that links MFAH's two buildings together.
End-of-Year Universe Exhibition
Temporary exhibitions like this one are the kind everyone enjoys: creative, participatory, and open to all ages. There's no shortage of ways to get involved, and each exhibit brings something new each year.
The Cullen Sculpture Garden
Free to enter, full of shade, relaxation benches, wide open space, and, as the name suggests, plenty of sculptures. It's a great outdoor escape within MFAH. Try the family game: look at each modern piece and guess its name before checking the placard.
