The Los Angeles County Museum of Art is the largest art museum in the Western United States with a collection of more than 130,000 artworks dating back from antiquity to the present. The museum has served the public since 1965, has embraced all cultures, and has viewed art from multiple perspectives. They have free tours and free wheelchairs and bag check. There is a cafe for food and drinks, and also a store to buy art catalogs and other items. One needs more than one day to be able to explore all the artworks and to enjoy all the details. An enjoyable visit.

Attended a Latin Jazz concert at the outdoor amphitheatre. Sat on the grass with friends, talking, munching and sipping wine. It was beautiful! So many families there and people from all across Los Angeles hanging out together In the same place, practically shoulder to shoulder in some areas, and it was all chill. At one moment I looked around and it was like looking at a Renoir or a early Seurat painting, (though this, thankfully, included people from many races and nationalities - just saying) - like a field sown with diversity - so many faces and colors, like a sea of wildflowers, and each doing regular, ordinary things: like cooing to a baby; eating a sandwich; looking over the rim of a plastic cup while being regaled with tales of the latest escapade; or lost in that glorious exaltation that is the cat-and-mouse of dancing with one's partner to the sweet Latin Jazz that rolled through the whole scene like mischevious waves of light and sound - scintillation and vibration. Unforgettable! What a beautiful way to celebrate my friend's birthday. See y'all there next time?

I like a good time enjoying the arts, and I love that this connects with the La Brea Tar Pits. Definitely an experience. I personally didn't like how the tour guides were a bit rude, BUT whatever. So many more things to enjoy. Definitely make it a point to visit and explore.

A world class museum with vast collections across many areas. I particularly enjoyed their European painting collection and the South and Southeast Asian art section (including some gorgeous Chola bronzes). The grounds are very large and nice to walk in. On the day of our most recent visit, they had a Latin music event.

Love this place. Every time I come here, there is something new to see and learn about. Plus, it is just a cool place to come and walk around & people watch.
