PARKING AT THE SHEPHERD SCHOOL



ARTS @ RICE PARKING CARD
Starting this year Rice University is providing a special parking card for visitors attending performances at the Shepherd School of Music.  This card will cost $50 and give the user unlimited access to the Alice Pratt Brown Lot for one semester.  They are valid after 4:30 p.m. on weekdays and all day on weekend days.  These special cards are available by sending a $50 check to the Shepherd School Concert Office. For more details contact the Shepherd School Concert Office at klb2@rice.edu or 713-348-8000, or the Parking Office at parking@rice.edu or 713-348-7275.

Signs inside the campus near entrances 1, 2, 8, and 20 provide directions to all visitor parking. The Shepherd School Concert Office will not be able to answer questions regarding parking, nor is the Shepherd School responsible for these changes. If you need more information, call the Rice University Parking Office at 713-348-2020.

The free visitor parking is in the 1500-space Greenbriar Lot, west of the football stadium, for people visiting Rice for meetings, events, activities, and business.  Enter the lot from Greenbriar Blvd at campus entrance 13A or 13B.

We have two paid visitor lots between the Shepherd School of Music and the football stadium.  The Alice Pratt Brown Lot is directly in front of Alice Pratt Brown Hall; West Lot 5 is between entrance 8 and the football stadium off of University Blvd.  The fees for the use of these lots are:
