LACMA


Los Angeles County Museum of Art, or LACMA, is best known by the general public for its beautiful light display outside the museum on Wilshire Blvd. in Los Angeles, but step inside one of the many galleries and you will find works of art from all over the world. Being an art history major at UCLA, I have had the opportunity to be led around the museum by professors and curators, as they explain the museum process and how they decide what to display. Basically, this place is an art lover's dream. Here are a few snapshots of paintings or artworks I really enjoyed.

Abbot Kinney in Venice, CA


A colorful summer afternoon well spent in the lovely Venice, CA area of Abbot Kinney. Quite separate in feel from Venice Beach, Abbot Kinney is a cute couple of blocks of boutiques, coffee shops, and eateries. With its charming First Fridays Food Truck nights and colored with Venice's signature street art, Abbot Kinney is a great place to spend an afternoon with friends.
