Chais Classroom Wing

Absolutely one of my favorite museums! The Noah's Ark exhibit is fun for the little kids and big kids. Many times I have marveled at the collection of Arks the museum has acquired. I attended the Notorious RGB exhibit (December 2018) and most recently the Kubrick Photographs (December 2019) exhibit. The docents are wonderful and I usually feel very comfortable at the museum. But the last two times I went, I was made to feel very uncomfortable. I came in the front door and was a bit disoriented so I asked the two greeters at the door, "Where do I get tickets?" One woman said , "Over there" and kind of pointed with her head. She continued with her conversation with the other employee while leaning on one of the museum's signs (I think for balance) and ignored me awkwardly standing there. I found the ticket stand and waited. After a few minutes, the same woman (who I found out was Candy or Candice) came over and chastised the workers for not going fast enough or keeping the desk clean. This "Candice" smelled like she had been drinking and looked like she just came from a club- thigh high boots, black and white jacket, etc. I felt very sorry for the employees being corrected in front of visitors and all I could do was think about them the rest of the day. I took a picture of them standing at the door just watching folks wonder around trying to figure out where to go. Looked like they were not interested in helping folks, asking how their visit was, or directing them to exhibits. I will continue to visit but I prefer to ask the ladies in the shop questions or the folks at the desk- they were all very sweet.

Awesome place. Well kept grounds - beautiful! Friendly staff and security. Worked here photographing events and also attended events with my family as well as rainy days.

This is like a museum if you're children (or you're self) is interested In history them I highly recommend it. Before you make the trip make sure it's open to the public
Last week they had it closed due to an event.thats the only problem.

A beautiful facility for the arts. The art exhibits and musical performance room are so nicely decorated, a big fan of the architecture here.

I went here for the first time last year for the Jim Henson exhibit. This is such a charming museum, with the nicest staff (literally it’s like being greeted by family, everyone is so warm and welcoming) they have a court yard and a little cafe. Seems like the perfect place to go with kids (they have a Noah’s arch exhibit that is geared towards children) this is down the street from the Getty, so when I visit one I usually visit the other. If you are taking public transportation, they can both be reached via the 234
