Zainul Abedin Museum was managed by the Mymensingh district administration until 2000, when it came directly under the purview of the National Museum. Several important artworks have been stolen from the museum, while others have been damaged by rainwater. The situation has improved since the National Museum took over, but the condition of some rooms in the museum remains deplorable. The second floor of the museum building has three galleries laid out between two rooms and a veranda. Shawkat Hossain Selim said the age of the building caused significant damage before the National Museum took charge.
