In the News

A temporary art installation has opened as of early September at Exploration Green, a former Clear Lake golf course that is in the process of being converted into a detention pond and walking trails complete with native vegetation and local wildlife. The installation, located at Phase 1 of the project at 16205 Diana Lane, Houston, is titled “Sounds of Tomorrow - The Oracle Tree” by artist Lina Dib.
