But, thanks to the charity of many of Houston\u2019s oil rich, we also have some space unique to Space City. That includes the incredible Menil Collection, an always free campus of founders John and Dominique de Menil\u2019s prized curation. With some of the world\u2019s finest examples of surrealist art including the Cy Towmbly Gallery plus the new Menil Drawing Institute, and set amongst a tranquil park of massive oak trees, the Menil is truly an inspiring space for all Houstonians.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/dir\/The+Menil+Collection,+Sul+Ross+Street,+Houston,+TX\/1533+Sul+Ross+St,+Houston,+TX+77006\/@29.7371657,-95.438616,13z\/data=!3m1!4b1!4m13!4m12!1m5!1m1!1s0x8640bf7f64db3727:0x8cc7c42a58901fbb!2m2!1d-95.3974167!2d29.7371721!1m5!1m1!1s0x8640bf7f64db3727:0x8cc7c42a58901fbb!2m2!1d-95.3974167!2d29.7371721?entry=ttu&amp;g_ep=EgoyMDI1MTAyMi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">1533 Sul Ross<\/a><\/p>\n<p>713-525-9400<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.menil.org\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">menil.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tRelated<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Best Free Museum: The Menil Collection One of the joys of living in the fourth largest city in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":47800,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[27555,21175,56,58,57,27556],"class_list":["post-47799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-houston","tag-best-free-museum","tag-best-of-houston-2025","tag-houston","tag-houston-headlines","tag-houston-news","tag-the-menil-collection"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47799"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47799\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/47800"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
