Today LACMA's Muse is holding their 15th annual ArtWalk, and that means free admission to 5 museums along LA's Miracle Mile: LACMA, George C. Page Museum/La Brea Tar Pits, Petersen Automotive Museum, California Craft & Folk Art Museum, and Architecture+Design Museum.
As part of ArtWalk, attendees can also enjoy free music performances, artist interviews, workshops, live painting, dance performances and more between Noon and 8 p.m. ArtWalk is free, and no tickets are required. They are, however, holding a ticketed ArtWalk After Party ($20 for Muse members; $25 for the general public) which starts at 9 p.m. at Petersen Automotive Penthouse and includes a live DJ and an open bar.
One year ago, Congress voted to defund public media, eliminating a critical $1.7 million from our budget every year going forward. But they couldn’t silence us, and we’re not going anywhere.
