Major Exhibition Fund

The Major Exhibition Series is the hallmark of the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston’s programs and its commitment to present the best art of today to the community. Since its founding in 1948, this mission has directed the Museum’s activities and focus. These large-scale presentations feature work by leading artists working the vanguard of contemporary art as well as thematic presentations that address timely ideas and issues. Exhibitions presented in the Brown Foundation Gallery are recognized regionally, nationally, and internationally and are supported by the patrons, benefactors and donors to the Major Exhibition Fund—individuals, foundations, and corporations who make gifts of $10,000 or more annually to the Museum to support these shows. The Museum offers four giving levels for supporters of the Major Exhibition Fund: Donor ($10,000-$14,999); Benefactor ($15,000-$24,999); Patron ($25,000-$49,999); and Major Patron ($50,000+).
