The Museum of Fine Arts has been nominated for Best Museum in Tampa Magazine’s “Best of the City 2025” awards.
As the first art museum in St. Pete, MFA has long been a cornerstone of creativity and connection. From world-class exhibitions to engaging programs and events, it’s a space that brings art to life – and into the heart of the community.
