    Spring break is around the corner, and while that finds some Houstonians jetting to Mexico, Colorado, or other destinations, with the state open, folk and families are on the hunt for things to do.

    From outdoorsy camps and farms to indoor treats such as museums, we've rounded up some diversions to enjoy during the week off. — all of which promise to practice some manner of social distancing. Also, don't forget to check out our event calendar here for what to do each day.

    AsiaFest at Asia Society
    Celebrate Asian and Asian American heritage with a “lite” version of AsiaFest running 4-7pm daily, March 15-18. The event takes place across Asia Society's front lawn. Enjoy performances, games and activities, shopping from local AAPI owned businesses, and tasting food from some of Houston’s favorite food trucks.

    Blessington Farms
    Get ready for a spring-break spectacular over at this Simonton-based farm. From March 13 to 21, families can take part in such fun activities as picking your own strawberries & blueberries, going on hay rides, riding pedal cars, digging for fossils and simply going fishing.

    Camp for All
    From March 12 through 19, the Burton campsite (also known as Camp for Y’all) will have fun, family activities such as hiking, canoeing, swimming, campfires, and more. They will also check temperatures, maintain distancing guidelines and enforce masks.

    George Ranch Historical Park
    The Richmond-based ranch will get in the spring-break swing of things March 16 through March 21. Travel back in time as all sites along the History Circle will be open for tours. Families are also encouraged to bring a picnic lunch to enjoy at our picnic area.

    The Health Museum
    From March 15 through 19, the museum will have a spring-break edition of its Make a Day of It: Passes, Pedals and a Picnic in the Park program. You will get general admission tickets, picnic baskets (vegetarian and non-vegetarian options) and BCycle vouchers.

    Houston Zoo
    Starting March 13, the zoo will be expanding its daytime operational hours by one hour, opening from 9 am to 6 pm, with last entry at 5 pm. And from March 13 through 21, it will also open one hour early at 8 am. for Zoo members.

    Lago Mar Lagoon
    This biggest lagoon in the state (in Texas City) will have spring break going from March 12 through 28. Families can enjoy all the various water activities, including kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, as well as beach amenities like private cabanas and sofa lounges.

    Lone Star Flight Museum
    It’s gonna be a high-flying time as the aviation museum will have spring break events from March 13 through 21. Expect plane rides, hopping into simulators, checking out cool aviation artifacts and machinery, learning aviation history, talking with mechanics, etc.

    The Orange Show and The Beer Can House
    Weekend tours for these visionary art sites are now open, with safety precautions in place. The Orange Show will be open from 10 am to 2 pm, while the Beer Can House will be open from 1 to 5 pm. (Smither Park is still open daily from dawn until dusk.)

    The Rink: Rolling at Discovery Green
    From now through April 11, glide beneath the glittering lights of downtown in the center of Discovery Green’s beautiful 12-acre park. Safety precautions will be set: Masks are required and a reduced number of tickets will be sold to maintain social distancing.

    Splashway
    Beginning March 12, the Sheridan campground will have a whole week packed full of activities for the entire family, including cookoffs, family game tournaments, arts and crafts, a St. Patrick’s Day-themed scavenger hunt, and a Ray’s Express water-gun fight.

    Houston movie theater is one of 15 in U.S. to offer hologram selfies

    Now You See Me: Now You Don't hologram

    One Houston movie theater will be part of a first-of-its-kind promotion to hype the new film Now You See Me: Now You Don't: According to a release, 15 theaters across the U.S. will host appearances by the cast — Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, and the rest — in hologram pop-ups.

    Moviegoers can take selfies with the holograms starting on November 14, when Lionsgate releases the film in theaters. In Houston, the selfie station will be at the Regal Edwards Houston Marq*E.

    Working with technology by Proto Hologram, Lionsgate will bring the characters — played by Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Justice Smith, and Ariana Greenblatt — into theaters. In the promotion, the holograms take out their own cell phones to capture selfies with the theater patrons, who can download the images via QR code.

    Lionsgate Worldwide Distribution president Kevin Grayson says in a statement that the promotion is perfect for this particular film.

    “This amazing technology borders on magic, so there’s no better way to anticipate the release of Now You See Me: Now You Don’t,” Grayson says. “Get your selfies with the cast now, before they disappear.” Clever! You can see why he's Lionsgate's president of Worldwide Distribution.

    "This represents a new milestone for holographic experiences in cinemas, and the largest theatrical activation Proto has ever delivered,” said David Nussbaum, Founder and Chairman of Proto Hologram. “We were thrilled to work with Lionsgate to bring the cast directly into theater lobbies."

    Moviegoers can see the tech in action at the following theaters:

    • Phoenix — Harkness Tempe Marketplace
    • Los Angeles — AMC Grove 14
    • Orange County — Regal Irvine Spectrum
    • San Francisco — AMC Bay Street, Emeryville
    • Denver — AMC Westminster Promenades 24
    • Washington, DC — AMC Tysons Corner
    • Orlando — AMC DINE-IN Disney Springs 24
    • Atlanta — Regal Atlantic Station
    • Chicago — AMC Chicago River East
    • Boston — Showcase Legacy Place (Dedham)
    • St. Louis — Marcus Ronnie's Cinema 20
    • Albuquerque — Cinemark Albuquerque Rio 24
    • New York — AMC Empire 25
    • Dallas — Cinemark Webb Chapel
    • Houston — Regal Edwards Houston Marq*E

    In Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, the Four Horsemen (Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Isla Fisher) unite with a new generation of illusionists (Justice Smith, Dominic Sessa, Ariana Greenblatt) in a mission to expose the corruption of Veronika Vanderberg (Rosamund Pike), a diamond heiress with ties to arms dealers, traffickers, and warlords.

    Aided by the legendary Thaddeus (Morgan Freeman), the two generations of magicians overcome their differences to try and defeat their adversary. The release promises some of the most thrilling illusions ever captured on film.
