    Love This Place!

    The permanent collections are good enough, but there is always something new popping up. Spend time to see everything, and if you have time left over, the La Brea Tar Pits are right next door!

    Beautiful Lights

    I didn't go in so no fees required. I just wanted to see the lights at night and it was stunning. Parking is not a problem as there are side lanes that has a parking meter.

    Excellent Charles White Exhibit

    We were disappointed to learn that several galleries are closed due to preparation for the construction of a new building. However, the "Charles White: A Retrospective" exhibit was excellent! A free jazz concert "Sweet Baby J'ai" was underway during our visit and the music was...More

    I think the LACMA website will offer a within a year's advance booking unless there are special events. Try accessing the site and it will show options for your intended dates.

    Cafe alto is just round the corner. It’s realy small though and just opened so might be hard to find. I doubt it’s on trip advisor.
