This past Saturday my friends and I decided to spend the day in LA and while we were there we decided to take a look at some of the places Professor Zucman suggested.
Our first stop was the Bradbury building. Immediately after walking in I looked up and was completely amazed. The whole building was absolutely beautiful but my only disappointment was we weren’t allowed to walk up the entire stairwell to the top. Other than that my time there was great and we even took some good photos.
Our second stop was the Biddy Mason Memorial. This was about a 3 minute walk from the Bradbury building and honestly without the directions I would have never found this place. It was hidden behind a bunch of tall surrounding buildings. All in all this was actually a great stop on our adventure through LA.
Next we were getting hungry so we stopped by Grand Central Market. Grand Central Market had tons of options to eat ranging from Mexican food t PB&J to even Japanese food. I ordered a Chicken club from the restaurant above called Jose Chiquito but I was so hungry at the time I forgot to take a picture of it. All in all I definitely recommend it.
Next off we went to The Museum of Contemporary Art. This was actually my favorite part of the day because all the pieces in the exhibit made me actually think. Some pieces I thought to be very plain and made me think to myself “this is famous art?”. Not only that but as an aspiring artist it made me believe that one day my piece could be in a gallery one day. In addition other pieces completely amazed me like the top middle photo of the heart and the top right photo of the collage of eyes.
By the time we made it out of the MOCA sadly the line into the Broad became too long that we would’ve not been able to get in at a reasonable time before it closed.
Lastly we visited the Disney concert hall which was absolutely beautiful. We spent a good 30min walking around and exploring the building. All in all my experience was so much fun and I’m glad I experienced it, especially with my best friends.
