Frost Art Museum

The Frost Art Museum is an art institution on Florida International University's campus with three floors and nine exhibition galleries. A glass atrium entrance opens to upper levels where the collection is organized across distinct spaces.

The institution was founded in 1977 as The Art Museum at Florida International University and took its current name in 2003 following a major donation. This renaming marked a significant milestone in the museum's development.

The museum celebrates artistic voices from Latin America and the Caribbean, making their work visible to diverse audiences. Visitors encounter contemporary and historical pieces that reflect the cultural connections between these regions.

The museum is located near the 107 Avenue entrance of the Modesto A. Maidique Campus and is easy to find. Admission is free and educational programs are available for school groups.

A notable collection of about 2,300 objects was added in 1989 through a donation from the Metropolitan Museum and Art Center. These works, including sculptures, photographs, and American prints, significantly enriched the institution.
