SUMMARY:UCLA Meteorite Collection
DESCRIPTION:FREE WEEKDAYS- UCLA Westwood Village\nThe UCLA Collection of Meteorites is the largest on the West Coast and contains over 2500 samples from about 1500 different meteorites. It is the fifth largest collection of meteorites in the United States and the second largest housed at a university. \n  \n \nOur collection includes the main masses of about 40 meteorites and the type specimens of more than 300 meteorites collected from hot deserts; 60 of these are iron meteorites. Eighty of these meteorite type specimens are from the state of California. These were collected by local citizens during the past few decades\, mainly from the playas (dry lakes) scattered around the Mojave Desert. \n  \n \nSome of our meteorites are large and well suited for exhibits (in fact\, some of them are exhibited at the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History). However\, most of the samples are small and mainly of value for research. \n  \n  \n \nThe study of meteorites and the processes that formed them is called cosmochemistry. The cosmochemists at UCLA are among the most productive university researchers in the world. It is thus appropriate that we have one of the best university meteorite collections. \n  \nWe are in the second year of operating a Meteorite Gallery\, located in room 3697 of the Geology Building. Opened in January 2014\, the Gallery is open to the public weekdays from 9 am to 4 pm. CLOSED WEEKENDS. Admission is always free. The current exhibits will gradually expand as funds and additional samples are obtained. For highlights of the Meteorite Gallery please click here. \n  \n  \n \n  \nWe are eager to add meteorites to the UCLA collection. If you have a meteorite collection and are interested in considering a donation\, we would like to hear from you. You can contact us here. \n \nLOCATION\nThe Meteorite Gallery is located in room 3697 of the Geology Building on the UCLA campus. \n595 Charles E.

SUMMARY:INVESTIGATING GRIFFITH PARK
DESCRIPTION:NOW ON VIEW- The Autry Museum\n\n\n\n\nThe Autry Museum of the American West wants to know\, “What makes Griffith Park special to you?”  In a city with such diversity as Los Angeles\, The Autry is reaching out to Angelenos in hopes to hear from as many people as possible.\n\n\n\n\n \nWhat makes Griffith Park special to you? For many Angelenos\, the name evokes a panorama of memories—from picnics\, hikes\, horses\, and softball games to the zoo\, observatory\, trains\, and\, of course\, the Autry. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBut how much do you really know about Griffith Park? How did it come to be\, and what are its best-kept secrets? Join us as we explore stories about Griffith Park\, a landscape that we honor as Tongva/Gabrielino land and a public park for Los Angeles. \n  \n \n  \nTo celebrate Griffith Park’s 125th anniversary in 2021\, the Autry\, has opened a community-led exhibition. The Autry’s newest exhibition\, Investigating Griffith Park\, a hands-on space that invites visitors to share their stories\, experiences\, and input on what the anniversary celebration should include. \n \n  \nOne section of the current gallery asks\, “What is the park to you?” and invites visitors to write responses. The museum says that while the public’s notes may influence the final exhibition\, they’re also helping the museum plan future questions\, focus group topics\, and talk-back sessions with partner organizations. \n \n\n\n\nWhile the Autry designed the gallery as a way to gather feedback from the public\, it’s also a great introduction to what the park offers. Visitors will find historical artifacts and photos\, video clips of Griffith Park’s many movie appearances\, a kids’ play area\, and an oversized board game about P-22\, the beloved mountain lion. \nEven the area of the park where the Autry is located has a fascinating history. In addition to the upcoming anniversary exhibition\, the Autry’s long-term plan includes building a research archive around Griffith Park in order to make it easier for people to study the park and to spur further research. \n  \n\n\n\n\nTimeline:\nCurrently open in its first phase of development\, we welcome your feedback as we further transform one of the Autry’s core galleries into an experiential\, hands-on space. Through Investigating Griffith Park\, we are gathering input from hundreds of visitors and experts to reveal some of the many stories from the park’s 4\,000-plus acres. Keep watching this space for future updates\, and sign up for our Investigating Griffith Park email list here. \nPHASE I: DISCOVERY | 2018 \nPublic discussions\, hands-on activities\, and feedback loops helped us learn what you wanted to know about the park. \nPHASE II: IDEA TESTING | 2019–2020 \nWatch as the gallery further transforms based on community input. \nPHASE III: EXHIBITION FINALIZED  \nExperience the exhibition fully when phase III is completed in connection with the 125th anniversary of Griffith Park! \n\n\n  \n\n\n \nThe Autry Museum of the American West\, 4700 Western Heritage Way\, Griffith Park. The museum is open Tuesday-Friday 10 a.m.–4 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Tickets may be purchased onsite or online. \nHours\nFREE EVERY 2nd TUESDAY of the MONTH- Griffith Park\n\n\nTuesday: Closed\nTuesday – Friday: 10:00am – 4:00pm\nSaturday & Sunday: 10:00am – 5:00pm \n\n\n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nhttps://theautry.org/exhibitions/investigating-griffith-park\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n

SUMMARY:THE HAMMER MUSEUM
DESCRIPTION:FREE FOR GOOD! Westwood Village\nThe Hammer Museum champions the art and artists who challenge us to see the world in a new light\, to experience the unexpected\, to ignite our imaginations\, and inspire change. \n\nThe Hammer understands that art not only has the power to transport us through aesthetic experience but can also provide significant insight into some of the most pressing cultural\, political\, and social questions of our time. We share the unique and invaluable perspectives that artists have on the world around us. \nA vibrant intellectual and creative nexus\, the Hammer is fueled by dynamic exhibitions and programs—including lectures\, symposia\, film series\, readings\, and musical performances—that spark meaningful encounters with art and ideas. \nAnd through our unwavering commitment to free admission and free public programs\, the Hammer is open for all and FREE FOR GOOD.\n\n \n  \n\nA BIGGER\, BETTER HAMMER MUSEUM\n\nIf oil magnate Armand Hammer were alive today\, he might marvel that the museum he launched in Westwood before his death in 1990 has evolved into one of the most forward-focused art institutions in Los Angeles. After all\, the museum was originally designed to house his fine collection of old-master paintings and drawings\, as well as works on paper by Honoré Daumier and his 19th-century contemporaries. \n\n\n\n\n\nBut in the ensuing decades\, as the art world has continued to evolve\, so has Los Angeles — and so has the Hammer Museum\, which is now a part of the UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture. In 1994\, UCLA assumed management and operations of the museum\, and the Hammer kept its original purpose but also expanded its mission. Today\, the Hammer has a wide reputation for innovation and for showcasing new artists. \n  \n\nNew Contemporary Gallery\n\n  \n“L.A. has become a hotbed of contemporary art and artists\,” says Ann Philbin\, the museum’s director since 1999\, “and the Hammer has become a premier institution where they are shown.” \n  \n\n\n4th-Floor-Offices\n\n  \nUnder Philbin’s leadership\, the museum has expanded its collections and programs\, including establishing the Hammer Projects series of exhibitions and installations featuring local\, national and international emerging artists. It also launched the Made in L.A. biennial\, now in its fourth edition. Through these and other innovations\, the Hammer has quadrupled its attendance to about 250\,000 a year. \n  \nLindbrook Terrace\n  \nMeanwhile\, Occidental Petroleum\, which occupied the adjoining building\, relocated to Houston\, Texas. So the Hammer has begun a major\, multiyear expansion that will take the museum far into the 21st century. \nEarlier this year\, the Hammer announced a $180 million capital campaign. Almost half of those funds will be used to expand gallery and other public spaces\, while the rest will go toward exhibitions\, programming and an endowment. The museum has already raised more than $130 million\, including $30 million from L.A. philanthropists Lynda and Stewart ’59\, J.D. ’62 Resnick and $20 million from Hammer board chair Marcy Carsey. \n  \n  \nAnnex\n  \nThe renovations and additions being designed by Michael Maltzan Architecture\, who was commissioned in 2000 to create the museum’s 2003 master plan\, include: \n• A newly designed entrance at Wilshire and Westwood boulevards to maximize the museum’s visual presence at one of the nation’s busiest intersections. In the coming years\, the museum will also benefit from a planned Metro Purple Line station across Wilshire. \n• More than 10\,000 square feet of additional exhibition space for contemporary art. \n• New permanent collection galleries and a study room for the Grunwald Center Collection. \n• 20\,000 square feet of enhanced public spaces\, including a new restaurant. \n• A new and more accessible Hammer Store. \n  \n  \n2nd Floor B Side\n  \nIn all\, the expansion will provide 60 percent more gallery space for exhibitions. The museum will remain open during construction\, and admission will continue to be free. “We’re accessible to everyone\, and that keeps people coming back\,” Philbin says. “L.A. has been growing as one of the world’s most exciting cultural creative communities\, and the museum has grown alongside it.” \n  \n\n  \nBookstore\nHISTORY OF THE HAMMER MUSEUM\nThe Hammer Museum opened to the public in November 1990. Founded by Dr. Armand Hammer\, former Chairman of Occidental Petroleum Corporation\, the Museum was designed by architect Edward Larrabee Barnes. Financed by Occidental\, the Museum was built adjacent to the Corporation’s international headquarters in Westwood. At that time\, the Museum featured galleries for Dr. Hammer’s collections — old master paintings and drawings\, and a collection of works on paper by Honore Daumier and his contemporaries — as well as galleries for traveling exhibitions. Dr. Hammer passed away in December 1990\, three weeks after the opening of the Museum leaving many spaces unfinished. \nIn 1992\, the Museum began negotiations with its neighbor\, University of California\, Los Angeles (UCLA)\, to assume the management and operations of the institution. In April 1994\, the partnership with UCLA was finalized and the following year the University relocated its collections and the staff of the Wight Art Gallery and the Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts to the Hammer. The Museum also assumed responsibility for the Franklin D. Murphy Sculpture Garden\, located at the north end of the UCLA campus. \nHenry Hopkins\, then director of the Wight gallery and professor in the Department of Art\, became director of the Museum until his retirement in 1998. In 1999 Ann Philbin was named director and has developed a strong and original institutional identity and built a national and international reputation for thematic contemporary exhibitions\, scholarly historical exhibitions\, and contemporary artists’ projects. During her tenure the Hammer has formed a Hammer Contemporary Collection which now holds over 2\,000 artworks. In addition\, Philbin has overseen substantial renovations to the museum’s building\, including the completion of the 300-seat Billy Wilder Theater and museum café. With Philbin’s direction\, the museum instituted the internationally acclaimed Hammer Projects\, a series of more than one hundred contemporary exhibitions and installations featuring local\, national\, and international emerging artists. Philbin also created a series of dynamic public programs which are core to the Hammer’s identity and regularly feature many of the most influential authors\, artists\, and creative thinkers of our time. \n \n\nHours\nThe museum is open every day\, except Mondays\, July 4\, Thanksgiving\, Christmas\, and New Year’s Day. \nMonday: Closed\nTuesday – Friday: 11:00 a.m.-8:00p.m.\nSaturday & Sunday: 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. \nAdmission to all exhibitions and public programs is free and open to the public. Free admission to the Hammer Museum is made possible through the generosity of Erika J Glazer and Brenda R. Potter. \n  \nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nhammer.ucla.edu\n \n  \nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n  \n

SUMMARY:Saber-toothed Tigers at LaBrea Tar Pits & Museum
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGo on the hunt and discover more about our very own Mid-city kitty as you track down saber-toothed cats around the museum and La Brea Tar Pits.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPicture yourself prowling La Brea Tar Pits and show us your best saber-toothed cat pose. Take pictures throughout your scavenger hunt and share them on social with #SabertoothedSummer. \nSaber-toothed cats were the first fossils discovered at La Brea Tar Pits and are some of the most common fossils found in the asphalt. 7-inch canines tend to stand out! These killer kitties prowled Los Angeles until the end of the last Ice Age\, and–don’t be alarmed–there are a couple of big ones right near the entrance! \nStone Cold Cats\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 of 2 \n\n\n\n\nprevious slide \n\n\n\nnext slide \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThey’re hugging! Or maybe not? Saber-toothed cats would have been excellent grapplers. Learn how we know that inside\, but first snap a selfie and be glad these cats are occupied or capture yourself doing your best grapple with somebody (ask first!). \n\n\n\n\n\nBut what about these other big cats? On the left of our affectionate Smilodons\, you’ll notice another pair of statues. These are one of the other big cats found at the Tar Pits: Panthera atrox\, the American lion\, one of the largest known cats. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLook out! Saber-toothed cats were ambush predators\, and it looks like there’s a few more stone Smilodon we might’ve missed. Can you find them? \n\n\n\nScientists think that saber-toothed cats fed on mammoths and mastadons! Find out how we know at the next stop. \nHey\, Grrl. I can see your bones.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 of 2 \n\n\n\n\nprevious slide \n\n\n\nnext slide \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat do you notice about this cat’s pose? They’re bent low in a crouch\, ready to pounce! Saber-toothed cats probably weren’t fast enough to run down their prey but ambushed their dinners. Can you match this saber-toothed cat pose? \n\n\n\n\n\nOpen wide! This saber-toothed cat skull with jaws open demonstrates the length of the canine teeth. Say\, ‘Ahhh’ for the camera! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNow that we know how paleontologists figured out how saber-toothed cats hunted and some of what they ate\, look for another skeletal Smilodon on display. \n\n\n\nTry to remain calm as you snag a selfie with this fossil feline. Take a close look at its vertebrae\, the bones that make its spine. What do you think broken and healed bones tell us about how they hunted? \nThink Outside the Litterbox\nFossil poop is literally too old to stink… well\, Tar Pits fossil poop\, called coprolites\, smell a lot like tar. Can you find some saber-toothed scat? Don’t worry\, you won’t step in it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 of 2 \n\n\n\n\nprevious slide \n\n\n\nnext slide \n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s okay to touch it! Or don’t! \n\n\n\n\n\nHere’s some real fossil poop right here from the Tar Pits. Coprolites like this fossil woodrat poo can tell scientists a lot about what extinct animals ate and how they lived. \n\n\nPhoto by Carrie Howard \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFossil Lab\nScientists are working on fossils recently dug up right here from the Tar Pits! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 of 2 \n\n\n\n\nprevious slide \n\n\n\nnext slide \n\n\n\n\n\n\nScientists are uncovering new fossils from the Tar Pits and learning more about the world of saber-toothed cats every day! But is there a saber-toothed cat working in the Fossil Lab? \n\n\n\n\n\nNibbles got into the Fossil Lab?!? How did you get in there? He’s just a kitten\, so the researchers are probably ok. If you can’t find Nibbles in the Lab\, he just might be walking around the museum. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSlow Food\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 of 2 \n\n\n\n\nprevious slide \n\n\n\nnext slide \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAsphalt seeps like the Tar Pits are sometimes called predator traps. What do you think made meals that couldn’t move so tempting? \n\n\n\n\n\nLooks like you’re the sloth here. The scimitar-toothed cat (Homotherium serum) was another pretty kitty with terrifying teeth. Show us your best saber-toothed cat pose and grab a picture before it’s too late! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCool off in the Ice Age and explore the world of saber-toothed cats in our 3D film Titans of the Ice Age playing daily in the 3D Theater. You’ll get to see saber-toothed cats in action! \n\n\n\nAfter you see the film\, try to answer the question: why do you think so many predators got trapped in the Tar Pits? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEven more rawr!\nNow that you’re a real saber-toothed cat person\, why not come face-to-face with a life-size saber-toothed cat puppet in Ice Age Encounters. Travel back in time to Ice Age Los Angeles in this exciting live show. Our star Cali has a killer purr-sonality. She may look fierce\, but you’ve nothing to worry about (unless you’re a giant sloth\, a mammoth\, a mastodon\, a bison\, or a camel…) \n\n\n\nLast stop: step outside for the last selfie stop at an active dig site! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIce Age Science Is the Pits\nSee where all the saber-toothed science gets started at Pit 91 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1 of 2 \n\n\n\n\nprevious slide \n\n\n\nnext slide \n\n\n\n\n\n\nNew fossils are being unearthed every day at La Brea Tar Pits. It’s the only active dig site in a big city on the planet. Can you find one of the saber-toothed cat fossils found at Pit 91? \n\n\n\n\n\nCan you picture yourself working in paleontology? With new discoveries happening daily\, it’s easy to get stuck in the field. Snap your last selfie then listen closely: you can hear the asphalt bubble. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTurn that frown into a smilodon because Saber-toothed Summer is happening all season long!\nFollow @thelabreatarpits on Instagram and @tarpits on Facebook for more fun saber-toothed cat facts and activities and share your pictures with #SabertoothedSummer \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJOIN AND GIVE\n\nSupport our groundbreaking research on Ice Age Los Angeles and what it can teach us about the future of our climate. \n\n\n\n\nMake a gift \n\n\n\nBecome a member \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n\n\n5801 Wilshire Blvd.\, Los Angeles\, CA 90036 \n  \nFREE Daily 3-5pm- in the Wilshire District \nWelcome to the world famous La Brea Tar Pits and Museum.  We want to help you make the most out of your visit and discover all that we have to offer. Let’s start planning your tar pits experience: \n\n\n\n\nWe offer a variety of ways to see our general admission areas of the museum for free throughout the year.

The land art movement first appeared in the late 1960s and served to challenge the location\, material\, size\, and temporal existence of a work of art. Double Negative consists of two long straight trenches\, 30 feet wide and 50 feet deep\, cut into the “tabletop” of Mormon Mesa\, displacing 240\,000 tons of desert sandstone. The cuts face each other across an indentation in the plateaus’ scalloped perimeter\, forming a continuous image\, a thick linear volume that bridges and combines the “negative” space between them. \nmore info at: Double Negative \n\nAdmission to Double Negative by artist Michael Heizer is always free.\n\nHours\nMonday: 11:00 a.m.-6:00p.m.\nTuesday: Closed\nWednesday: 11:00 a.m.-6:00p.m.\nThursday: 11:00 a.m.-8:00p.m.\nFriday: 11:00 a.m.-6:00p.m.\nSaturday – Sunday: 11:00 a.m.-5:00p.m. \n  \nGeneral Admission: Free\nSpecial exhibitions: $18\nMembers: Free\nChildren under 12: Free\nSeniors and students: $10 \nSpecial exhibitions are free every Thursday\, 5-8pm.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor additional information\, visit the website @ \nwww.moca.org\n \n  \n\n\nFind more \n \n \n \n \n \n \n  \n
