They have multiple things that kids can do and my child loved to play at the mini HEB. They have an art area and lots of spots for imaginative play. It's smaller than the one in the med center, but I like that because it's not too overwhelming for my child. Definitely recommend.

The Brazosport Museum of Natural Science is located inside a complex that houses two performing art…read moretheaters, a small gallery of local artists' work, an art league work room, and the museum. There is also a planetarium! The complex is part of the college, but is set far from the main college area and has its own parking. At first the museum really scared me by its 1970's look, but it's actually quite good for its size. It has a huge shell collection, as well as some minerals and other things mentioned on its website. Some of the displays had some great information on them. There is a weaver bird nest with information and graphics on how the nest is built step by step. There is a display of Texas shells along with models of what the organisms look like when they are alive and inhabiting the shells. There is a small dark room in the back that has minerals with a timed display of UV light showing their fluorescent properties. There is a display of regular colored shells and their albino counterparts. Once I got past the very old feel to the place, I was impressed. Overall, I think the museum is worth the trip from Houston. We visited this museum and Sea Center Texas in the same day. Both are free and really interesting and educational.

This SL location was definitely a lot smaller than we thought it'd be. Free parking. We went for a…read morespecial "block" party exhibit that turned out to have various block building areas and was quite a small area for a special ticketed event and you weren't allowed to go back in the area once you walk out which we didn't know. They had an area with science interactive areas that was free and an area with dinosaur history. I'd recommend if you want a bigger full experience to check out the main location one in the museum district as this SL one is quite small.

I visited the Museum of Natural Science in Sugar Land for a work fun event and enjoyed the day…read more This location is affiliated with the main campus downtown in the Museum District, offering a much smaller slice of history in the suburb of Sugar Land. Members can use their pass at either location. This location is actually ironically located in a fairly simplistic brick building that used to house a prison of all things. Parking is free. Inside there are just a few exhibits including life science, hall of technology, a special salt exhibit, hall of paleontology, space hall, and a few other exhibits that required a special extra fee like a dig pit. The exhibits are somewhat small but almost all have an interactive component which can be great for small kids. Part of our event included a very short tour of the second floor and our guide was extremely knowledgeable and engaging. I work in a very different type of industry so this was really refreshing to see. They do have private meeting rooms that can be reserved which made it easy to have some meeting events in addition to time to wonder the exhibits. Overall, I enjoyed the day and glad that I got the opportunity to "be a kid again." If you're in the area it's definitely worth checking out. If you're far away however, I am not sure that I would make a special drive.

I don't go to Rice or anything but anyone is welcome to come to quite alot of the events and/or exhibitions they have..! Some of the few I've been to are the recent Yoshitomo Nara exhibition and the beekeeping/real fish painting workshop ‍ Those were really fun and wonderful, at the time I got the chance to go with a friend which made it even better. Would recommend checking out what they have running and making memories with someone chu luv..! Butt! It's also the perfect spot for a solo date too. Don't feel shy going alone ‍ In fact, on my most recent visit this last Saturday (02/28/2026) I went solo to an outdoor show they apparently hold seasonally. And this time the performer was an artist I know and really like named Raveena! A modern r&b, jazz, pop desi-american singer. She was soooo amazing live, the crowd was very chill and happy to see her, the students who set up her stage? made it SO CUTE andd they even served free drinks felt like a really sweet and swell way to end february~

Sip & Stroll Art Tour…read more Have you ever wondered how art is selected for a certain space? Was it commissioned? Donated? Was it made specifically for a space? Was it already designed? So interesting to join the Moody Center for the Arts Executive Director Allison Weaver on a walk to explore the art on the Rice University campus. An art gallery. Tents with murals. Indoor and outdoor stops. So much fun to stroll through the campus and enjoy works by Jaume Plensa, James Surls, Beverly Pepper and Mark di Suvero. Love the classic giant people formed by huge letters sculpted by Jaume Plensa. The Crown Fountain in Chicago is another well loved piece by Jaume Plensa. Interesting to hear how a work of art either fits or does not fit into a space. For example, Po-um by Mark di Suvero was in a place where the kinetic sculpture did not get the wind it needed to be able to move. Imagine having to uproot and transplant a twisted steel work that weighs hundreds of pounds, but that is what was done. Jaume Plensa wanted his sculpture Mirror to be along a walkway that would have been sweltering in the Houston heat. It looks so much more inviting nestled among the oaks. In fact, you can walk into the sculpture and sometimes students bring chairs to study near the piece. Interesting to hear also about the sea-saws that were used during the pandemic to allow students to interact while keeping them safely six feet apart. The tents served a similar purpose, but also served as a canvas for oversized murals. Don't miss James Turrell's Twilight Epiphany Skyspace. Climb the stairs to reach the second floor. Our tour ended at sunset just in time to watch the sunset sequence which lasts for about 40 minutes. So beautiful. Check out the Moody Center for the Arts Calendar. Admission and tours are free. Parking is available on paid lots on the Rice University Campus.
