The MFAH invites you to join Film Buffs, a membership group for movie lovers. Members of Film Buffs—established in 1996—have met industry professionals such as director Charles Burnett, actors Stockard Channing and Peter Fonda, and Houstonians Wes Anderson, Jonathan Caouette, and Richard Linklater.

As a Film Buffs member, you receive:

• At least 10 admissions to the museum’s year-round film screenings in Brown Auditorium Theater (excluding some screenings)

The MFAH is the oldest repertory cinema in Houston and has sponsored the exhibition of film since 1939. Brown Auditorium Theater, designed by renowned museum architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, offers a superb moviegoing experience. It was named Houston’s “Best Place to See Vintage Flicks” by the Houston Press two years in a row.
