"There’s no real bad time to visit the museum, but if there ever is a best time, it’s when it’s free. Take advantage of Thursdays at MFAH, when admission is always free and the museum is open late until 9 p.m. Wander through its many exhibits, including Yayoi Kusama’s famous light installation, Aftermath of Obliteration of Eternity, and check out the roof and sculpture gardens, which are free to the public. Make this outing complete with a coffee and a snack at the more casual Cafe Leonelli, or head to the on-site restaurant Le Jardinier for a Michelin star-worthy meal. Insider tip: Keep up with the museum’s calendar of events. There’s something for everyone." - Brittany Britto Garley
