Later in the week, Discovery Green, the Kinder Institute, Houston Public Media and Univision 45 will host an evening of community celebration with Klineberg featuring the public premiere of “Interesting Times” – a new film highlighting the dynamic transformations of the city of Houston over the past 30 years – and a program that will include testimonials from Houstonians as well as music and dance performances. The event will take place at Discovery Green, located at 1500 McKinney in Houston on April 27 at 6 p.m. and is free and open to the public.
