Color Factory is a new fun-filled, vibrant exhibition that opened its doors to Houston on Oct. 26. Color Factory originally debuted in San Francisco in 2017 then went on to open a new location in New York in 2018 and made its way to Houston. This interactive exhibit located at 3303 Kirby Dr. has partnered with local artists to provide Houston-inspired art installations including a Texas-sized Lite Brite.
Tickets are $35 per adult and $28 for children 12 and under. The exhibit is closed on Wednesdays.
