Huntsville Museum of Art (HMA) is a museum located in Huntsville, Alabama. HMA sits in Big Spring Park within Downtown Huntsville, and works as a magnet for cultural activities. It was originally established by city Ordinance No. 70-134, on August 13, 1970, which established the Museum Board of the City of Huntsville. The Museum held its first exhibition in 1973 and moved to its first permanent facility at the Von Braun Center in 1975. HMA moved to its present building at Big Spring Park in March 1998 and housed seven galleries.
The Museum expanded in 2010 with the Davidson Center, which includes seven new exhibition galleries, the Stender Family Education Galleries, four special event facilities, and an adjacent parking lot. The Museum's 75,034 square foot facility now includes fourteen galleries covering 20,000 square feet.
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. The Museum is a member of the North American Reciprocal Museums program.
