Houston Baptist University - Morris Cultural Arts Center

Comment on Facebook

The HBU campus will change dramatically on completion of the new Morris Cultural Arts Center.

The center will include, for the first time in university history, a chapel/recital hall, with seating for 365. Both the chapel/recital hall and 1200-seat theater/auditorium will feature professional-quality acoustics, providing much-needed venues to accommodate substantial audiences.

Expanded museum spaces will house the university's collections: Dunham Family Bible in America Museum and the Museum of American Architecture and Decorative Arts. A beautiful lobby will serve as the common point of entry and as entertaining space for receptions and special events.

The Morris Cultural Arts Center complex will embody the university's mission to unite the intellectual and the spiritual, providing the kind of facilities that will enable dedicated faculty and students to achieve new levels of excellence.

This project is made possible through the Capital Campaign, now in the Leadership Phase.

Facilities in the Morris Cultural Arts Center include:

Belin Chapel and Recital Hall

Theater and Auditorium  (The Linda & Archie Dunham Theater)

McNair Hall

Museums:
Dunham Bible Museum

Museum of American Architecture and Decorative Arts

Museum of Southern History
