Your tour of the Holocaust Museum Houston begins with a look at life before the Holocaust and the beginning of Nazism. The exhibit then shows its insidious progression, from segregation, to imprisonment, to extermination.  Artifacts, film reels, photographs, and text panels tell the story and set the backdrop for personal accounts from local survivors in the short films "Voices" and "Voices II." Included among the many items on display is a World War II Holocaust railcar that was used to carry millions of Jews to concentration camps and, ultimately, to their deaths; and a 1942 Danish rescue boat depicting the type that saved more than 7,200 Jews from almost certain execution at the hands of Nazi Germany. The museum is an ever-evolving, living museum that includes a permanent exhibit and temporary exhibits on loan from other Holocaust Museums around the country. Many who have visited here - survivors, adults, schoolchildren - have left notes, poems, artwork and gifts to express their feelings upon seeing the exhibits.

Movie fans and film aficionados, your paradise awaits you! WorldFest is the oldest Independent Film & Video Festival in the world having evolved over 50 years to recognize and honor outstanding creative excellence in film & video and to validate brilliant abilities and to promote cultural tourism for Houston. Not surprisingly, all members of the WorldFest staff are filmmakers. Unspooling at the flagship AMC Studio 30 Dunvale Theaters, WorldFest screens only 55-60 feature film premieres, with a complete and absolute emphasis on the American and International Independent feature films and with a continuing annual spotlight on an individual country and its films. They also offer competition in TV production, commercials, and music videos.

Enjoy a great meal seven days a week at Saint Arnold Brewing Company's Beer Garden & Restaurant. When you're done, take a tasting tour of Texas' oldest craft brewery. Their small crew does everything at the brewery: brew the beer, filter the beer, keg the beer, bottle the beer, sell the beer and drink the beer. For them, that is a passion, not a job, and they believe that it shows through in the beers they make, because their beers have soul.
