HOUSTON’S ART CAR PARADE

Established in 1988 with only 40 cars and 2,000 viewers, the
ART CAR PARADE has grown enormously throughout the years. Last year
250+ vehicles and over 250,000 viewers enjoyed the parade,
one of the largest free events in Houston, and the Orange Show’s
largest arts education outreach program. With its new permanent
date, the second weekend in April, this year will be filled with fun
events from April 9–12. www.thehoustonartcarparade.com
