Great local museum to learn about Chicano and Mexican-American history. Is in a restored historic building and has a great combination of critical history and patriotic Mexican contributions to the United States.
We went with our 8 year old & 19 year old and each one learned a lot (as did we) and enjoyed the interactive exhibits. A nice way to start a visit to Olvera street and the oldest part of LA and balance out the glitz and beach life.

The museum was closed when we visited but the gardens were worth visiting. It was well cultivated, very modern and well thought out. The displays were very informative and covered some important history about Mexican American migration. The wooden coyote sculpture by Alfredo Gutierrez stood out and was just one of many located along the migrant train route from Southern to Northern Mexico. Another piece of the Berlin Wall, the other in Loyola Marymount University, was erected at the front and was a gift of the citizens of Berlin to a former president to remind him of what walls does to its citizens and the success when the walls were removed. Very apt.

Un museo histórico que merece una visita y que se encuentra en dos de los numerosos edificios del Pueblo de Los Angeles. Está junto a un aparcamiento que es donde dejamos el coche y rodeado de jardines. El día que estuvimos nos encontramos con una pequeña reivindicación de carácter político.

I have been to La Plaza de Cultura y Artes a few times, each time to see a different exhibit of Mexican American history and art. It is free to the public and always has interesting displays of the historical contributions of the Mexican American in California. One exhibit that was of interest to me was the Mexican American baseball teams that were very active in the 50's in the Southwest. These baseball leagues were a big part of Sunday afternoons at the local parks in Boyle Heights. This exhibit brought back many old memories for me of watching my Dad play ball in these leagues. Another exhibit featured the Walk Outs of the high school students of the Los Angeles Unified School District in 1968. Every visit to this gem of a museum offers a glimpse of the history of Los Angeles and its ties to the Mexican American Culture. A must see not only for Latinos but for those visiting Los Angeles and those that live here!

I found out that this museum was free, so I decided to go and visit this place. I honestly had low expectations... turns out it was one of the best museums in all of LA! There was so much information that really shocked me but it opens your eyes to the reality of what used to be. The history I never heard, now being shown to me. What made it so memorable to me was that it had so many interactive sections, including many where you are actually free to write your thoughts about things. The staff here are super friendly, and it is actually a very engaging experience! You can smell things, try on things, draw, write, and more. I definitely see myself coming back!! Make sure to donate at the end!!

A great place to check out, especially the exhibit on the second floor. They have changing other exhibits which are interesting.
No need to worry about the price, since admission is free. Plus they have the best restrooms around!

We really enjoyed our visit. The permanent exhibits are very well done and informative. The two temporary exhibits; a photography exhibit "Landscapes and Land Dwellers" and "Ya Basta!", the history of the 1968 student walkout were fantastic. The museum is free, and also open on Mondays, when most museums are closed. There is not much signage out front, so it's easy to miss.

Located in El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historical Monument, LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes better known as La Plaza, is a project of LA County and a Smithsonian Affiliate. It occupies the ground and first floor of the 1888 Vickrey-Brunswig Building and the 1883 Plaza House at El Pueblo de Los Angeles Historic Monument.
The building is adjacent to La Placita Church across Main Street, directly in line with the gazebo in the Old Plaza. Despite its Spanish name and its focus on the Mexican and Mexican-American experience, the exhibits are largely in English.
La Plaza showcases the story of Mexican Americans in Los Angeles and is the premier center of Mexican American culture. It aims to celebrate and cultivate an appreciation for the influence of Mexican culture, especially with reference to its manifestation in Los Angeles and Southern California.
It celebrates the past and energizes the future by sharing the stories of history, culture, values, traditions of Mexicans, Mexican Americans and all Latinos in the founding and ongoing evolution of Southern California.
The vehicles it uses for this purpose are exhibitions, public programmes and educational programmes. It has interactive, colourful exhibits that encourage visitors to explore the ongoing story of Mexican Americans in LA and in the US as a whole.
The permanent exhibitions here include:
• LA Starts Here!
• Calle Principal: Mi Mexico en Los Angeles
We found the LA Starts Here! exhibit extremely interesting. It uses multimedia displays, artefacts and storyboards to provide an introduction to the forty-four people from eleven families who were recruited from New Spain in 1781 to colonize Los Angeles.
These original eleven families were of Mulato, Indio, Espanol, Negro and Mestizo descent. It traces the journey from the first settlers to the new immigrants. There are also touchscreens to view photos, video clips and stories of notable Mexican Americans.
La Plaza is open Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from noon to 5pm and Friday through Sunday between noon and 6pm. Tuesday is closed. Admission is free.

This museum and gallery was not in my plans when I visited downtown LA but I am so glad I stumbled upon it. I learned so much from the exhibits and clearly presented information. Upstairs were two specialist exhibitions including a fascinating history of the school walk outs of 1968 and an interactive guide to life in the 1920s. This is a little gem.

Great museum. Rotating exhibits relating to Mexican American and Los Angeles history. Donations optional. Museum events are free and their gift store holds unique items. Highly recommended spot if you would like to know more about la history.
