'Naked At The Getty' Is About Art, Not Just Nudity

One year ago, Congress defunded public media. Now that we're 100% community funded, please become a sustaining member or increase your existing membership today.

"Naked at the Getty" is a scavenger hunt, run by Watson Adventures. But you can't just buy tickets any time — it's only held over Valentine's Day weekend.

It involves answering questions by tracking down nude art around the Getty Center. You work in teams, and if you do a real good job, you might just get a medal.

Only a limited number of tickets are available, but Watson Adventures has other scavenger hunts year-round (think: murder mysteries, food-based tours around Chinatown, hunts inspired by Harry Potter). Their events all take place at museums and in historic neighborhoods, with each location giving the hunt a different flavor. They incorporate history, so you'll learn something while also competing.

You've got three chances to get naked (via art) this weekend. Read the full story for more details.

THE HUNT CONTINUES:

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. LAist is now 100% community funded and that means we’re taking our future into our own hands and turning to you to keep local reporting strong.

You come to LAist because you want independent reporting and trustworthy local information. Our nonprofit newsroom doesn’t answer to shareholders looking to turn a profit. Instead, we answer to you and our communities. We are free to follow facts wherever they lead and to hold power to account without fear or favor. Our only loyalty is to our readers and listeners and our mission: to inform, engage, and strengthen Southern California’s communities.
