Beyond CAMH
Beyond CAMH reflects contemporary art’s ever-expanding influence through an ongoing series of artist-driven projects and public partnerships extending beyond the walls of the Museum. Working outside our galleries—including public artworks and cross-sector collaborations—CAMH aims to reach new audiences and directly impact civic life in Houston and beyond.
Beyond CAMH seeks to re-imagine the ethic and practice of a more porous museum—one that spills onto the street, engages in long-term collaborations with artists, meets audiences where they are, and intentionally partners with community organizations. These initiatives create a platform to support and amplify our role as a civically engaged institution.
