Thank You!

October 4, 2010

Our Free Community Weekend was a blast--lots of people and lots of fun. We hope you were here and got a chance to see the new Resnick Pavilion and its three exhibitions, and that you enjoyed the live music and family activities we had planned. Here are just a few photos to commemorate the occasion. Thanks to everyone who came and made the weekend a success.

Long Day

Yeah kid, that's how we felt by the time the weekend was over, too.

We were glad to see you all here this weekend. And if you liked the price, don't forget:

  • LACMA is free for L.A. County residents every weekday after 5 pm (closed Wednesday)
  • LACMA is free on the second Tuesday of every month
  • NexGen is a free membership group for all kids under 18, and they get to bring one adult to the museum for free, any time!
  • The Boone Children's Gallery is open every day; it's a great place for young and old alike to make some art
  • We also have free family art-making activites every Sunday as part of Andell Family Sundays
