The Soumaya Museum is a non-profit cultural institution that features two museum locations in Mexico City: Plaza Loreto and Plaza Carso. They are intended to safeguard, exhibit, research and promote the art collection of the Carlos Slim Foundation, and focus both on showcasing its own art collection and on international exhibits. The museum's name honours the memory of Soumaya Domit, wife of the museum's founder, Carlos Slim, who died in 1999.
