Looking for an opportunity to spend quality time in the galleries with works of art in the collection? Interested in learning about the creative process from artists or about the latest exhibition on view at LACMA? Talks at LACMA offer something for everyone and include lectures, symposia, conversations with artists, dining experiences alongside food and wine historians, and more.


Experiment with art materials, build new skills, discover art on view at the museum, and launch your imagination with our team of creative and professional teaching artists.

Supplies and parking validation are included in tuition. Due to construction, classes will take place in gallery spaces and outdoors on LACMA's campus rather than a studio. With this in mind, acrylic painting and printmaking classes are on hiatus. For more information, email [email protected].

Teens ages 16 and older with previous art experience may also join adult art classes.

Need-based scholarships are available for students.

Adult Art Classes are supported in part by the Dorothy Schick Endowment Fund.

When news of a novel coronavirus arrived in the United States in early January, xenophobia was not far behind. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, reports of racist attacks against Asian Americans increased. As the number of confirmed cases exploded in America, racial disparities in health outcomes became starker. The hardest hit are often Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities—many of whom are essential workers. Before and throughout the pandemic, Black and Brown people across the nation have continued to be murdered at harrowing and unacceptable rates by the police.

Join For Freedoms, GYOPO, LACMA, and StopDiscriminAsian (SDA) in a series of lively virtual conversations about the pandemic’s impact on the movement for racial justice, and the country’s long standing health, economic, and racial inequities.
