LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) & Urban Light

The largest art museum in the western US, now anchored by the new Peter Zumthor-designed David Geffen Galleries that opened in April 2026, fronted by Chris Burden's beloved Urban Light installation of 202 vintage street lamps. Go for the encyclopedic collection and the iconic lamp-forest photo. Practical note: Urban Light is free and lit nightly from dusk; the galleries are closed Wednesdays, so confirm hours and book timed entry.
