Film Buffs
The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, invites you to join Film Buffs, a membership group for movie lovers.
As a Film Buffs member, you receive:
- Passes to sneak previews of new commercial film releases
- One year of complimentary admission to the museum’s diverse, year-round film screenings in Brown Auditorium Theater (excluding special engagements, some annual series, and fundraising benefits)
- Invitations to social events and programs with visiting filmmakers and members of the Houston film community
- MFAH Films, a bimonthly film calendar
- FilmNews, a weekly e-mail update
At Film Buffs events, members have met prominent industry professionals such as Charles Burnett, Stockard Channing, Peter Fonda, Richard Linklater, and John Sayles, as well as Houstonians Wes Anderson and Jonathan Caouette.
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 and renovated in 2000, offers a superb moviegoing experience with stadium seating and Dolby digital sound. 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!
