There's always something exciting to see at the Wortham Theater, for it is home to the Houston Ballet, the Houston Grand Opera, and Da Camera of Houston, a group that performs chamber and jazz music. In addition, it hosts social galas, civic meetings, corporate and group events, and weddings. The Center's architectural design, designed by Eugene Aubry of Morris Aubry Architects, has been lauded as a cutting-edge study in form and function. It also houses the 2,500-seat Alice and George Brown Theater and the 1,100-seat Roy and Lillie Cullen Theater.

Whether you need a corporate team-building event or a milestone birthday party, make any special occasion a memorable night out at the refined putting lounge.
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. Among the many items on display is a World War II Holocaust railcar that carried millions of Jews to concentration camps and a Danish rescue boat that saved thousands of Jews from 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, and schoolchildren, have left notes, poems, artwork, and gifts to express their feelings upon seeing the exhibits.
