Los Angeles Museums

Fine Art and Cultural Museums
In Los Angeles California !

Here is a complete list of Los Angeles museums. The best art galleries and cultural, historical museums, exhibits for both kids and adults.

Many museums are Free, such as the Science Museum, the Getty Center, and the History Museum of Los Angeles.

Others charge only a nominal fee or ask for a donation. My favorite museums are located in the Exposition Park area of downtown Los Angeles. These museums are free, but there is a parking fee ( very reasonable).

The City of Hollywood also has some outstanding and very fun museums that even your kids will like.
