Happy Anniversary! Help Us Celebrate the Next Ten Years of Houston Institute for Culture Houston Institute for Culture turned ten years old on August 20, 2012. It incorporated in Texas as a non-profit organization on August 20, 2002. Houston Institute for Culture produces city-wide events at Miller Outdoor Theatre, Discovery Green, Hobby Center and other public arts venues, as well as traditional arts and media arts events in many local art venues and universities throughout the city, reaching more than 20,000 people. It provides youth programs in schools and summer camps benefiting more than 200 students per year. As we look ten years into the future, most everyone will know the organization as the Houston Museum of Culture. This provident and visionary institution will significantly improve quality of life in Houston, define the city for the nation and the world, and secure its future as a leading international city. Imagine Houston with a truly great museum - one that is modern with cutting-edge technology and captivating subject matter; one that studies and interprets the most important and interesting subjects in our lives - our diverse ways of life - including our foods, arts, identities, languages, religions, occupations and pastimes; one that examines the impact of media, technology, energy and transportation on our ways of life; and, one that draws from the best examples around the world, including the Smithsonian, Ellis Island, Museum of Asian Civilizations, Museum of New Mexico, and others. ![]() The Houston Museum of Culture will interest all Houstonians, who see themselves as diverse cultures living in one great city - Houston, where they want the best possible futures for their children.
