Go see some art!

The third graders had such a great time viewing the art at the Getty Center last Friday! Did you know that in addition to free admission at the Getty Center, LACMA has a program for kids to come and visit free of charge, including free admission for one adult accompanying them? It's a great way for our kids (and us parents!) to have repeated exposure to art masterpieces right here in our city. LACMA's program is called NexGen and is good until your child turns 18! 

The following information is pasted from http://www.lacma.org/kids-families/nexgen-fast-facts

What is NexGen?
Arts for NexGen LACMA is a free youth membership for anyone 17 years and younger. As NexGen members, kids and teens can make the museum a regular part of their lives. Visit the museum for free anytime and bring one adult guest for free general admission. Enroll in person at the museum or by mail

NexGen encourages making LACMA a regular part of kids’ lives. In making short visits often, the museum stays fresh and fun but also becomes a place of familiarity and comfort.

What is general admission?
General admission includes collection galleries and most temporary exhibitions, with the exception of specially ticketed exhibitions. To visit specially ticketed exhibitions for free, among other benefits, adults may become members at higher levels. Kids are always free.

How much does NexGen cost?
Free to join; free to visit!

What’s the catch?
LACMA values families and the community. This is your museum—there is no catch.

Who can join?
Anyone ages 17 and under, including babies. 18 year olds and over can join LACMA at the right level, beginning at just $30 a year for students.

Even babies can join?
Yes! Life-long love of museums starts now.

How do we join?
Sign up on site or fill out this form [PDF: 3.28 MB] with your child's name and date of birth. Include your address and email and we’ll send you invitations to NexGen programs. For children under 13, a parent or guardian signature is required.

How do we renew?
No need to renew. Membership is valid through age 18. For those over 18, Student or Individual level memberships provide even more benefits.

I lost my card!
No problem. Call the Education Department (323 857-6512), email educate@lacma.org, or get a new card at the Boone Children's Gallery.

But we don’t live in LA…
That’s okay! NexGen wants all children to feel welcome and a part of LACMA. Everyone is invited to join.

Can teens come by themselves?
