If you are a visionary person and want the very best for the people
who live in the greater Houston region, please attend one of the
meetings listed below.
Due to its limitless potential, there is an imperative to move ahead
quickly with this exciting project to establish an
internationally-recognized museum. The Houston Museum of Culture will
provide great benefits to Houston by:
-interpreting the region's unique history and lifeways;
-presenting a major forum for the work of academic institutions in our city;
-benefiting area community advocates and educators;
-attracting international forums and diplomatic activities;
-providing an venue for cultural arts, demonstrations and community dialogue;
-promoting cultural tourism to Houston;
-and, promoting immeasurable improvements and quality of life benefits
for Houston communities.
You're invited to learn more about plans to build the Houston Museum
of Culture and the critical roles founders, advisors and volunteers
will play.
Two informative meetings are planned.

You may also help by coordinating future information meetings for
interested organizations and businesses.
There is a need for the wide range of abilities everyone can bring to
the effort, from helping plan the many special events that raising
awareness of the founding campaign will require, to crafting the
mission and vision, and designing the future structure of the museum's
support and operation.
Organizations, arts and music groups, and university departments can
serve a vital role as well. Outreach campaigns and fundraisers at area
universities and cultural institutions rank among the greatest needs.
We have many outreach opportunities coming up, from an advocacy
opportunity with the state legislature to the month-long Carnival
Connection, celebrating the unique relationship of the Caribbean and
Gulf Coast. Please attend a meeting, get involved and stay tuned for
progress updates on the Houston Museum of Culture.
