An wonderful place to enjoy with friends, family, date night, or solo. They offer events throughout the Summer, like the one I attended yesterday "Sip and Stroll". This event gave access to a former home (residence of Ms. I. Hogg) turned museum, a stroll of the grounds including luscious views of Caladiums, and water features. Our entry fee also paid for a refreshing sherbet dessert, and a drink. These gardens are located on Westcott - to park you would need to continue down the driveway where there is additional parking and signage leading to the bridge to the home and grounds. This place is picturesque, and serene. You'd never guess something like this is nestled in Houston. If looking for a place to just breathe and reset while walking the paths and enjoying the plants, trees, flowers, and decor, or to enjoy a lovely evening with cocktails, this is the place to be. A true gem of a place. You'll love it! Enjoy!

I would absolutely never come back here again, and I would not recommend. Take your time elsewhere, where you will be appreciated.

The security guards are rude as hell. Apparently you can't point at the art and god forbid you had your PAMPHLET open while you are walking. To the man who told me to close it, you are insufferable. The pamphlets are for the people and they can do whatever the hell they want with it. He must be so bored standing around doing nothing with his life that he decided to make an issue with my PIECE OF PAPER. The art is utter dog sh*t. I don't need to go to art school to say the art was awful. The art looks like someone took their poop and smeared it on canvas with scribbles. I think a toddler can create better art. Everyone looked so depressed to be working there which I can see why if I was staring at bullsh*t all day. I've been to so many art museums over the years and I have never had such an awful experience with the pieces and the staff. Rude staff, crap art. Only people who know nothing about art will enjoy this "collection". Make sure to not take pictures of the trash work, point at it, or have your pamphlet open because they will cause an issue with you.

I'm so glad I put this on my last tour around the art galleries of Housotn because it gave me a…read morechance to check out UH's campus. I had always heard bad things about the campus but it's actually not a bad campus. There is lots of free parking on the weekend and many pieces of art throughout campus. The Blaffer gallery is great for a school gallery. It's huge 2 stories. Much bigger than the one room available at Rice's gallery. I was there for their Masters Thesis Exhibition. It was a cool exhibit. There was also some work form high school students mixed in the back. UH has a bad rap but hopefully the Blaffer will open some new eyes on this beautiful campus.

A hidden gem for art lovers - located at the University of Houston…read more Whenever I travel I always look for art. I like how parking is available right in front of the museum. The museum was not too busy when we went, so the staff personally held the door for us when we walked in. They must have cameras on their hand full of primo parking spots, (the other spots are for students with passes) because it seemed like they were expecting us at the entrance. The staff was really nice and briefly explained a bit about the gallery and the building and off we were to explore. The art consisted of large- interactive displays. The first room we entered reminded me of a parachute caught in mid-motion, you know the kind of parachute that you played with in the fifth grade PE class...(do they do that anymore?) The upper gallery lead to some drawings and a broken glass exhibit. It held meaning to me as I tried to understand the artist's depiction of the display. A good diversion for mini-break to my food adventures. Its quite small, I think we spent about 20 mins in total on the Univ of Houston Campus.
