ARTWISEŽ Los Angeles Museum Map 2004

Laminated Museum Map of Los Angeles, California by Streetwise Maps

Revised 2004

The first thing that comes to mind when you think about LA may not be great museums, but it should. A haven of art and architecture, Los Angeles is a worthwhile destination, particularly for those who find pleasure in perusing the work of modern masters.

The ARTWISE^® Los Angeles freeway map will help navigate you to the stunning J. Paul Getty Museum and its European collections of art. This beautiful 24 acre complex perched high atop the Santa Monica Mountains offers a sweeping panorama of everything from Hollywood to the Pacific Ocean. What a view! Architecture buffs will go wild over this Richard Meier designed museum complex. Admission is free, but there is a $7.00 fee for parking (cash only).

Again, using the detailed freeway map, head south on the 405 to the 10 and turn north toward Santa Monica where you can visit the Santa Monica Museum of Art or the California Heritage Museum. Stop for lunch along Ocean Blvd. and revive yourself with the view of the Pacific. After lunch, drive up the Pacific Coast Highway for a few miles and look for the newly reopened Getty Villa.

Another great culture day would take you to LACMA on Wilshire Blvd. and the Peterson Automotive Museum located right across the street. Downtown LA has transformed itself into a hip cultural location. Located on California Plaza, the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) has grown into one of the West Coasts premier showcases of contemporary art.

Who says LA does not have culture!

The ARTWISE^® Los Angeles Museum Map was designed to help organize your time and facilitate your travels to experience as many cultural sites as you have the time for.

The main map is a detailed map of Midtown Los Angeles, West LA, Beverly Hills and Brentwood. Separate inset maps include Downtown LA in detail, Santa Monica in detail, and a Freeway map which links all of the LA metropolitan area together in one easy to fathom format. An inset of Pasadena ensures that you won’t miss the Gamble House. All museums and other cultural institutions are identified and indicated on the map.

This stylish map will enable you to visit many more museums than by any other means. Of course, the map will identify the museums which are within easy driving distance to one another, which for LA is a crucial productivity feature.

The museum index lists all museums with text covering address, hours, admission charge information and a brief description of the museum’s collections. No other map product will serve your cultural interests as well as the ARTWISE^® Los Angeles Museum Map.
