This was an interesting visit and we learned a lot, even having read about Mahatma Gandhi in the past. We had two excellent guides, one for the history section and one for the present and future section--encouraging each one of us to continue Mahatma Gandhi's legacy of nonviolent conflict resolution. I would recommend to everyone, especially school children to learn peaceful conflict resolution for a life time of peace.

The Eternal Gandhi Museum opened in 2023 and is a beautiful, educational and inspiring museum, located in Southwest Houston. It provides a detailed history of Gandhi's life and work, placing it in the context of both Indian history and Indian culture, as well as the international scene at the time. Attention is also given to his time in England and in South Africa. The presentation of the material is both attractive and historically sound, and it's that rare museum that can successfully keep children engaged and interested while also working on an adult level. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and the price was reasonable for what you got. We spent about 90-100 minutes there. This is truly a hidden gem in Houston, and I hope it gets discovered by more locals and more tourists (we were visiting from San Antonio). Anyone who would be inclined to visit a museum dedicated to a major figure in non-violent protest, anti-colonialism, and peace and understanding (and respecting other cultures), should be very happy with The Eternal Gandhi Museum. Highly recommended.

I visited the museum with my college alumni club. I thought I was knowledgeable about Gandhi and his teachings, however, I was really pleased to see this museum fill in the gaps for me on his early life and other milestones that I was missing. The museum is organized well and is highly interactive. The docents are excellent and were able to accommodate our group of 10+ people. I highly recommend visiting this museum if you are in the Houston area. It is great for all ages!

Our youth group from the Unitarian Church had a fantastic visit, and I highly recommend this museum. The staff provide are very helpful and will often provide visitors with a personalized tour. The museum conveys a message of peace and non-violence consistent with Unitarian principals which leaves the visitor with a feeling of hope at the end of your visit.

If you're in Houston and even remotely curious about history, peace, or just need some good vibes, you *have* to check out the Eternal Gandhi Museum! I swung by today, and let me tell you, it was like stepping into a whole different world—one where calm and inspiration rule the day. Right when you walk in, you're greeted by the warm, inviting scent of burning incense, which sets the perfect mood for the experience ahead. It's like the universe telling you to take a deep breath and soak it all in. The exhibits are fantastic—seriously, they’ve got everything from interactive displays to amazing artifacts that really make Gandhi's life and message hit home. Plus, the multimedia presentations are super engaging, so you won’t find yourself yawning in front of a dusty old exhibit. One of my favorite parts? The section that dives into Gandhi's influence on global leaders and movements. It really drove home how his teachings are still so relevant today. You’ll walk out feeling like you’ve just had a masterclass in how one person can spark change. And shoutout to the staff—they’re super friendly and clearly love what they do. They’re more than happy to chat and share even more cool stories and details about Gandhi’s life. Long story short: Whether you’re a history nerd, a peace lover, or just looking for something cool to do on a weekend, the Eternal Gandhi Museum is a total win. You’ll leave with a full heart, a clearer mind, and maybe even a new perspective on how to tackle the world.

We went with our Girl Scout troop on a Saturday morning. The docent-led tour facilitated by Ms. McCloud was wonderful! She spoke using language and connections the girls could understand while preserving the integrity and power taught through Ghandi’s life. The layout of the museum starts with a small gift shop and introductory foyer, progressed through Ghandi’s life, and concluded with other influential people who were inspired by his nonviolent approach to tackling social and humanitarian issues. The exhibits include informational plaques in three languages with impactful photos and quotes recounting various events. There are interactive components and short videos projected onto canvas screens and display cases with artifacts as well. The outdoor courtyard is inviting and relaxing. The items in the gift shop are reasonably priced and purposeful. This is a great place to learn and reflect for children and adults.

The staff and docents at the Eternal Gandhi Museum Houston were extremely helpful and accommodating. We brought a small group of 8th graders to the museum that had been studying the life of Gandhi as part of their world history curriculum and the museum tour was essential in bringing these stories to life. The building and grounds are beautifully designed and a feeling of peace and wellness prevails. We highly recommend this experience for families and class trips.

What an amazing & beautiful place. Small museum but so well laid out with the life of Gandhi. The statues of Gandhi were so lifelike you felt like he was there with you. The docent who gave the talk was very well educated about the life of Gandhi and the history of India. Would highly recommend this Museum to anyone in the area.

Dear Pankaj bhai and EGM Management, I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for inviting me to the personal tour of the Eternal Gandhi Museum in Houston. The experience was truly eye-opening and inspiring, offering a profound glimpse into Mahatma Gandhi's remarkable life and legacy. The museum's thoughtful curation and immersive exhibits made Gandhi's philosophy and values feel remarkably relevant and urgent, even in today's world. I firmly believe that his message of non-violence, compassion, and empathy should be shared with every student worldwide, inspiring future generations to strive for a more just and peaceful world. Thank you again for this enriching experience. I will carry the lessons and inspiration from the Eternal Gandhi Museum with me for a long time. Sincerely, Ahsen Ali Khan

Today, we took our Girl Scout troop to the Gandhi Museum to learn about social justice. It was an amazing experience for our girls (ages 6-11). We all learned so much (adults included). Our GS troop left inspired, grateful, and motivated to support positive change in our communities. I would be remiss if I didn’t mention our outstanding guide, Ms. McCloud. You can tell that she loves her job. She was so knowledgeable, energetic and she asked the kids lots of powerful questions. Make time to visit this beautiful museum. It will be well worth your time!
