Roots

Explore the origins of earth and man at the Houston Museum of Natural Science, where more than a dozen permanent exhibits explore the worlds of astronomy, space science, Native Americans, chemistry, energy, paleontology, and Texas wildlife. There are also several displays of dinosaur skeletons, natural gems, and other attractions that will keep you occupied for hours. Special sections of the museum include the Wortham IMAX Theatre, Cockrell Butterfly Center, Burke Baker Planetarium, and the George Observatory.

Discover the power of art at Project Row Houses, a community that enriches lives through art with an emphasis on cultural identity and its impact on the urban landscape. They engage neighbors and artists in collective creative action to help sustain opportunities with art studios in row homes, exhibition residences, houses for young mothers, and refurbished commercial spaces.
