Los Angeles Art Museums: 15 Best In & Around the City for the Holidays

Los Angeles is a brilliant city with a wide array of activities for visitors. Here are the best art museums in LA to help guide you on your artistic journey through the city.

The city of LA is only one small part of the greater Los Angeles Region, including Orange County and the Inland Empire.

LACMA is the most extensive and most impressive art museum in the Los Angeles area and on the pacific coast.

It houses nearly 150,000 objects from over 6,000 years of human history. It is one of the best museums in California.

LACMA features an extensive collection of Pablo Picasso’s works, with over 80 pieces of the inspirational artist’s oeuvre.

LACMA is conveniently located near the Miracle Mile on La Brea Boulevard, just off the Interstate-10 freeway.

The Museum of Contemporary Art is another two-for-one bonus (three-for-one if you count the installation in the Nevada desert, but that’s pretty far from Los Angeles!).
