10 Must-See Museums in Houston

By Shea Serrano, About.com Guide

The stainless steel building that now houses the CAMH was opened in 1972. (Although its history shows that CAMH began as a traveling exhibit around town.) As a contemporary museum, CAMH is “dedicated to presenting the art of our time to the local, regional, national and international public.” Exhibits rotate mostly, but educational programs designed to increase awareness among its patrons are permanent. Access to CAMH is always free.
