Officials with the Houston Arboretum and Nature Center recently announced the center received a $50,000 grant from The John M. O’Quinn Foundation to provide free parking once a month.
What’s new
Typically, parking at the 155-acre nature sanctuary costs $6.50 for nonmembers, except on Thursdays, when parking is already free.
The first free Sunday will be April 12, in honor of Earth Month, according to a March 26 news release from the arboretum. After April 12, the release states parking will be free on the second Sunday of every month through March 14, 2027.
