The Huntsville Museum of Art will be temporarily closed from March - June 2025.

During this time you can support the museum by joining the Keep it Cool Challenge!

This challenge aims to raise $50,000 to cover expenses incurred while we are closed to install a state-of-the-art HVAC upgrade.
The new HVAC system will ensure that HM continues to be a premier cultural destination for all.

During our closure we invite members, donors, and the broader community to rally in support of our future.
This essential HVAC system upgrade will preserve artwork, enhance the visitor experience, and prepare the museum for upcoming world-class exhibitions.

As a special thank-you, donors who contribute $50 or more will receive an invitation to the Champagne Celebration at the grand reopening of the Huntsville Museum of Art.

Learn more about how you can support the Huntsville Museum of Art and Keep it Cool on our website at hsvmuseum.org/support/keep-it-cool-challenge/

Black History Month + Fun Fact Friday! 🎨✨

Did you know that Guntersville, Alabama native Michael Banks is a contemporary folk artist known for his bold colors and striking, mask-like faces? His vivid palettes, intricate lines, and symbolic details create works that invite deep interpretation and emotional connection.

Banks' art has become some of the most recognizable contemporary folk art in the Southeast—and he has no plans of slowing down!

His works "Tease Me" and "Ego Three", part of the museum’s permanent collection, reflect our commitment to exhibiting and celebrating the work of Black and Alabama artists.

Washington, D.C.-based artist Renee Stout is a mixed media visionary whose work is inspired by social and political events, daily city life, spirituality, and the African Diaspora. Her objects and paintings are deeply rooted in decades of research into African history and cultural traditions.

The Huntsville Museum of Art sits in Big Spring Park, the epicenter of the dynamic and evolving city center that is Downtown Huntsville, and works as a magnet for cultural activities. Founded in 1970 by city ordinance of the Museum Board of the City of Huntsville, the Museum serves Huntsville and Madison County’s combined population of 420,000 residents.

The mission statement of the Museum is to bring people and art together through acquiring, preserving, exhibiting and interpreting the highest quality works of art. The mission statement is based on two beliefs: An understanding that the arts enriches lives; and that visual ideas are best perceived, understood and enjoyed through first-hand experience of original artistic achievement.

The Museum’s 75,034 square foot facility includes fourteen galleries covering 20,000 square feet. The original building opened in 1998 and housed seven galleries. The Davidson Center for the Arts expansion in 2010 added seven more galleries to the original seven, for a total of the current fourteen galleries. The Stender Family Interactive Galleries includes an Escher-esque color wheel and “A Walk Through Time,” which reveals ancient cultures and art through the ages.

Numerous meeting and event spaces are available throughout the Museum to accommodate weddings, receptions, meetings and other events. The entire complex is designed to integrate interior and exterior spaces and serve as a tangible focal point for quality of life and economic development benefiting the entire Huntsville/Madison County area. The Museum is fully handicap accessible.
