The lights, which is actually an art piece by Chris Burden called Urban Light, is a totally free installation to walk amongst and take pictures with. It's been around for a while and has already vaulted itself as a Los Angeles icon.

Don’t worry, it hasn’t fallen yet.

There's also a museum

Both these pieces serve as a nice welcome to the kind of art you will find in LACMA, which stands for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

LACMA has several featured exhibits (found here) and several seasonal exhibits (found here). Every single time brings new and exciting installations from throughout history that is sure to please all ages of all levels of art appreciation!
