About

The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (MFAH) is a nonprofit cultural institution founded in 1900 and based in Houston, Texas. It operates one of the largest art museum campuses in the United States, encompassing two gallery buildings, a sculpture garden, a research library, a movie theater, two art schools, and two house museums - Bayou Bend and Rienzi. The institution attracts approximately one million visitors annually.

MFAH maintains an encyclopedic art collection of nearly 80,000 works spanning more than 5,000 years from six continents. Beyond its permanent holdings, the museum hosts world-class temporary exhibitions, educational programmes, film screenings, and community events. It relies on members, donors, and volunteers to sustain its operations and advance its mission of connecting communities with diverse histories through art.

As a large-scale nonprofit with extensive digital infrastructure needs - ranging from collection management systems to visitor-facing technologies - MFAH requires robust IT and data operations to support its campus, online presence, and programme delivery. The museum is committed to accessibility and serving as an inclusive institution for all people.
