It presents and originates between six and eight exhibitions annually. The annual schedule may include major traveling exhibitions that have a particular relevance to [[Houston]] audiences; mid-sized retrospectives of national and international artists; exhibitions of regional artists; thematic surveys which place artists' work into new contexts; and special projects by local artists. Blaffer Gallery is dedicated to conducting original scholarship and research in contemporary art history. The museum frequently forges [[collaborative partnerships]] from among Houston's wealth of cultural organizations and educational institutions. Exhibition-related public programs and activities complement and elucidate each exhibition, from casual Brown Bag Lunch Tours to lively audience interaction during their "Contemporary Salons."
Recent major exhibitions of artists include [[Radcliffe Bailey]] (2001); [[Fred Wilson (artist)|Fred Wilson]]: Objects & Installations, 1979-2000 (2003); [[Chuck Close]] (2003); [[Jessica Stockholder]]: Kissing the Wall, 1988-2003 (2004); '''
Blaffer Art Museum is free to the public and attracts over 30,000 visitors annually.
