Film Buffs

The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, invites you to join Film Buffs, a membership group for movie lovers. Established in 1996, members of Film Buffs 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)

  • Passes to sneak previews of new commercial film releases

  • Invitations to social events and programs with visiting filmmakers and members of the Houston film community

  • MFAH Films, a bimonthly film calendar

The museum 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.

Through the support of Film Buffs’ annual membership dues, the museum is able to maintain the high quality of film programming it has offered for generations. Please complete the attached application form and join this exclusive group today!
