Known forWestern historyIndigenous artGriffith Parkunderrated
A serious and nuanced museum dedicated to the history, art, and cultures of the American West — far more sophisticated than its cowboy-and-frontier reputation might suggest. The collection spans Indigenous art and artifacts, Western film history, and fine art, with rotating exhibitions that tackle complex histories honestly. It's adjacent to Griffith Park, making it easy to combine with a hike or a visit to the zoo.
