LACMA Reviews

No doubt this place has free admission, but this doesn't mean that the guards over there feel to be so proud and rude. I don't know why they are so rude! They must change their behavior if they want to attract more and more people to this museum! I felt very good inside and this place has some great arts through out the world, but the guard experience made my day a bad one!

Really nice museum. I liked the Korean and German exhibitions as these countries are not generally displayed much in other museums. A lot of Picasso s and other famous artists. Too bad the Japanese pavilion was closed for renovations. Also, the parking is expensive !

Spent some time on the grounds. Really nice installations on a sunny day in Los Angeles. Could it get any better?

If youre looking to take pictures at the LACMA, wait till 8 pm and parking is $7. Or find parking on street for cheaper.

Art museum, outside is very beautiful place for photography

Lots of good art exhibits and sculptures. I highly recommend this place.

Excellent museums with multiple displays, some of which change frequently to new and interesting forms of art, including paintings, sculptures, miniature Hotwheels racecars, artifacts, and statues. Free entry on Thursdays if have a Bank of America card. Free outdoor jazz concerts on (Tuesday?) evenings. Street parking and inside parking ($12?) available.

Alejandro Inarritu, an exhibition of Guillermo del Toro"s monsters, and a final exhibition of Chagall with music for 2017. Free jazz Friday nights. Sign up to this museum. It always has talks with too directors, etc.

This place was huge and showcased so much incredible art from so many different legendary artists. Some of the employees were incredible and very friendly, while some were really uptight. I especially appreciated the Picasso room and just how many pieces were in it.

If your first visit was like mine, it was a little hard to make sense of all the different buildings on the site and the different functions they served, but everyone we spoke to was super friendly and helpful. Make sure you give yourself enough time to explore the area with all the different museums they have and the variety of stuff you can see for free just walking around the grounds.

Fantastic Sri Lankan exhibit. Very cool. Parking was 16 bucks, though.

It a beautiful place to enjoined it all the great paint status amazing moment of my life great art

This is such a spectacular place! Definitely worth visiting! We attended their Friday Night Jazz and it was a delightful experience.

Place for the whole family even the furry ones. Plenty of grass and things on the grounds to see and play on

I loved this museum! Before my visit, I had only heard of it because of the cool street lamps installation, but the whole museum deserves a few-hour visit! Among the things I truly loved was an area dedicated to modern poster design (as a designer myself it couldn't have been more fitting, even though I'm pretty sure most people would find it very interesting since posters are a very direct form of art).Also, I was delighted by the 3D effects pavilion, where you could actually try different methods of 3D lenses developed through the years. I never found anything like that in any other museum and I personally believe even kids would have a lot of fun!Also, I loved the huge collection of modern art, with lots of significant pieces from Lichtenstein, Picasso, and Braque!

me and my friend visted LACMA in Jan of 2019, it is scheduled to o closed for renovation in 2020

A great place to visit on any occasion. Their collections are vast and have everything from Modern art to ancient Latin American art. LA county residents get in free after 3 which is nice. It also works if you go to a school in LA county but don't live there.

Space space space! Not sure how maNy works you will fall in love with but the artistic spaxe here is gorgeous. Recent exhibition, or maybe all exhibitions worth a go.

When the weather is good, taking pictures is a must, and the space is vast. It is a good place to take a photo on the walk. It is necessary to take photos with your girlfriend.

Their collection isn't that great. If you like pop art, it's cool and everything. But just going here makes me homesick for NYC.

Didn't get to go in the museum. But even then, the park and sculptures in the park are already worth it

Excellent museum, with a lot of variety to see, go with time because it is worth visiting each sector

Checked out the permanent Modern collection - Outstanding works! Also the Rauschenberg 1/4 mile show was a once in a lifetime experience.

Great museum and an outstanding permanent collection from around the world and through different historical periods, a significant Japanese pavilion, right next to the Tar pits, the Page museum, three places to eat, free jazz concerts Fridays and Latin on Saturdays, new buildings offer contemporary art exhibits: Altogether a wonderful place to be this summer.

FREE Jazz performance!!!

This is the 23rd year they are organizing Jazz Nights. Tables & chairs are setup in the courtyard, next to Coffee & Milk shop.

People will come in the early afternoon, setup their picnic table and enjoy the food & wine.

The show starts at 6pm sharp for 2 hours. No better way to enjoy a beautiful evening with live Jazz music!!

Parking: $12 (since no admission fee for the show, come with your family or friends in one car, totally worth it!!)

could use some more vaginal looking art but I had fun.

I love visiting the exhibits and bringing my children. We even picnic with other friends and their kids here.

I love this place. It is one of my most desirable places in town. It's full of stories and culture.

I don't want to rate it badly because I actually liked the contemporary exhibition and especially the Chinese art by Qiu Ying was exceptional but charging the exact same amount when only half of the museum is open? Come on, I haven't seen that anywhere else!

Nice place for pic, just be ready to have people in ure pic

Only visitors the lamp posts outside and took the basic pics lol still cool to look at

Long-overdue review of this fantastic museum. We've been here countless times and it truly never disappointing. Love seeing everything they have to display. LACMA is a must while in LA

Just a great spot for lunch our evening snack you can walk through and imagine you're the light up

Yes the art shown here is some of the world's premiere modern and contemporary art in the US and the world. Sometimes so broadly appealing that one might call the appeal of the exhibitions as a collection of clap-along classics sure to please most visitors. What I want to review is the overall experience of being a visitor to this place. On my visit, the museum guards have been the most aggressive, rude and unfriendly, I dont know why they are so mean....

I wish the website informed you that half the museum is being worked on and closed. Still a not a bad museum. Food trucks outside so eat there, great choices.

The museum is excellent. We had only two hours to explore. The Picasso paintings are wonderful. The Japanese building was closed. The European arts are excellent. The South America collections are good. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Getting better every year as they add more space. A great indoor / outdoor experience, LA style, with something for everyone.

I came for a photo shoot for my daughters maternity photos they did a little photography session by the lights and the pictures came out wonderful. This is a place were i see many tourists going to for pictures as well. So beautiful but always very crowded.

For some reason I developed an itch to visit museums and since I've wanted to visit the lamp posts at LACMA and the Berlin Wall Project, I figured I might as well check out as much of LACMA as I could.

Parking was such a challenge, not familiar with the area, not a resident, and not willing to pay for parking, my options were limited. Driving around several blocks, I found a spot about a block and a half away from the museum that allowed two hours' worth of parking. Since I was visiting the museum on the second Tuesday of the month, admission was free, so I was ok with the limited time. If I need to come back, it's no big deal, except for the parking. I checked in at the ticket booth, was given a map, and a sticker that granted me access to several exhibits.

My first stop was the Samurai exhibit. The hall which houses the Samurai displays is large and occupies several floors. Arms and armor, swords, spears, and even matchlock guns, were spread out on the walls, in cases, and on floor.

From there I stopped off at the cafe. It's a small cafeteria style space with tables and chairs where you grab a tray and walk through an assembly line of hot and cold food options, including beverages, and pay at the register.

Strolling over to the Ahmanson Building, I couldn't help to notice kids playing in what looked like spaghetti hanging from the sky. How cool is that, for the kids. Anyway, the Ahmanson Permanent exhibits offers displays of Art of the Pacific, European Art, German Expressionism, Assyrian Egyptian, Greek, and Roman Art, Islamic Art, Modern Art, South and Southeast Asian Art. Temporary exhibits include; Written Image, Art Deco textiles, Hassan Jajjaj: My Rock Experimental, vol 1, 2012, Morton Barlett, Close up and Personal: 18 Century Gold Boxes.

So much to see, especially for those who are into the type of art LACMA offers. I'm not this type of museum buff, however, I did find some of their exhibits interesting and glad I visited and my itch was temporarily satisfied.

This was a really neat place to visit. A scene from American Horror Story was shot here with Lady GaGa.

Excellent place to learn and spend time with family, only now they continue to build and a little difficulty to get there but good place

A beautiful collection of Dutch paintings. Worth seeing are the works of Picasso, Warhol or Pollock.

One of the world s great museums - get a membership and support LACMA - it s a creative person s dreamland - lose yourself in halls of beauty

Great place to go if you're in the area and enjoy art! also if you're on a date! I highly suggest going!

Great place to visit when visiting Los Angeles. Highly recommended

In preparation for construction, most of the exhibits were closed, however they still charge full price. Not worth it

The Japanese pavilion is beautiful and the street lights display is a great photo op. The giant stone display is another interesting one. For some reason, it almost makes me think of a zen garden.

There is parking, I was charged $ 16 for 3 hours. There is water and bathrooms in each building. I did not ask for an audio guide, I do not know if they charge them (there are places that give them free) I went in May 2019 and there were many exhibition areas that were closed by remodeling or inventory. Admission is $ 25 or $ 20 if you are a resident. There are works by Picasso, Diego Rivera (Mexico), Rufino Tamayo (Oaxaca, Mexico)

Excellent museum, tons to see and very reasonably priced for admission

A great place to walk and explore. Make sure you don't overlook what's outside.

my girlfriend and I love this place. we could stop and look around for hours.
