Getting Around:

You don't need to rent a car to explore Houston and to reach the workshop sites. We highly recommend the new light rail system MetroRail. Trains depart every 6 minutes and offer convenient public transportation from the hotel (Smith Lands station) to the workshop sites (TMC Transit Center station), to the Museum District (Museum District station), or to Downtown & Theater District (Main Street Square and Preston stations). See MetroRail map and schedules. Day passes are $2 at the station vending machines.
