please contact the Lisa Smith Wengler Center for the Arts at 310.506.4594.
MUSEUM TOURS are provided to you at NO COST and are available before or after performances at Smothers Theatre, or at specially arranged times. Regular museum hours are 11 am to 5 pm, Tuesday through Sunday. Please call 310.506.4766 to reserve a tour. Space in the museum is limited.

IT'S ALL BLACK & WHITEContemporary Art from the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation
August 27–December 1, 2019
Artists turn to black and white to explore essential visual effects. These colors carry deep psychological meaning, ranging from white’s association with light and purity to black’s connection to darkness and death. This exhibition looks at a fascinating array of contemporary art that delves into the eternal mysteries of black and white.
RODIN: MUSES SIRENS LOVERSSelections from the Iris and B. Gerald Cantor Collections
January 18–March 29, 2020
Auguste Rodin (1840–1917) is considered to be the greatest sculptor since Michelangelo. This exhibition of 40 bronzes explores the complex biblical, mythical, allegorical, and secular associations surrounding the image of women. His highly expressive works capture the idea of woman as religious ideal, as patriotic symbol, and as representation of love.
