About The Pearl

Since opening to the public in March 2008, the Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts has established itself as a community resource bringing world-class art exhibitions and art education opportunities to the Northwest Houston community.

The Pearl is a non-collecting fine art museum, borrowing from public and private collections. The museum complements its exhibitions with an active schedule of programs and services. Founded on the community center concept, the Pearl reaches beyond traditional museums to enlighten, educate, and entertain.

The Pearl is housed in a former county library, leased to the museum and renovated through private funds, grants, and gifts. The Pearl is wholly supported through the community. Over 3,000 donors have given to the museum to date.

Chronicles: Art in the Spirit of Storytelling

Youth Art Exhibit

April 2nd to May 10th

Storytellers unravel worlds. From the marks of ancient palimpsests to the brush strokes of expressive paintings, visual art has remained a powerful medium for narration. It is human nature to chronicle our fantasies and realities, to express our existence. How do we narrate? Which legends are integral to our being? What is our story? This exhibit will uncover the spirit of young storytellers.

Chronicles: Art in the Spirit of Storytelling is a juried show with pieces selected by the Youth Art Council judged on theme, technique, personal expression, organization, integration, and artist statement.

This exhibit showcases an exciting collection of student artwork from across six Lone Star College campuses—CyFair, Kingwood, Montgomery, North Harris, Tomball, and University Park. The works feature a range of media and styles, highlighting the diverse perspectives of a student body that includes both traditional college students and lifelong learners from the wider community.  From painting and printmaking to sculpture and ceramics, Lone Star College Student Highlights offers a dynamic snapshot of the artistic energy thriving across the Lone Star College system.

Fresh Perspectives: Visionaries of the Next Generation

Youth Art Exhibition

April 2nd to May 10th

The Pearl is excited to announce our Guild’s juried Student Art Contest, highlights from the Lone Star Community College, and features from our Youth Art Council in the Main Gallery from April 2nd through May 10! Support our community youth’s rich talent.

Summer Camp

This summer, the Pearl is excited to present a brand new exhibition, “Art Unleashed: Creativity You Can Feel!” Surrounded by the magic of play and the infinite possibilities of our imagination, campers will be inspired to head back to their studio classrooms and create their own works of art.

Campers explore new mediums, techniques, and principles of art through hands-on visual art lessons, outdoor activities, and special instruction from guest artists. Through it all, they learn the principles of art, artistic processes, art history and more.

Pearl School of Art

​Small classes increase student interactions with talented faculty members. ​A distinguishing feature of the art classes at the Pearl School of Art is ready access to works of orginal art on exhibition at the Pearl Fincher Museum of Fine Arts. ​

Youth Classes

When children get a chance to express their creativity and dive into art, they develop confidence, increase their empathy, and discover how to look at the world from different perspectives. All those skills help prepare students to take on the world with passion and creativity.

Adult Classes

Artistic and creative expression offers many benefits. You’re busy with work and life demands, so fitting in an art class might be challenging. But, nurturing your creative side is essential to your well-being — not to mention lots of fun!

Art Workshops

Art Workshops are designed for beginners, but all levels are welcome! Artist instructors offer a variety of workshops throughout the year exploring different media and techniques. Typically, one daytime or two evening sessions are offered for each workshop.
