Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits (Hancock Park / Mid-Wilshire)

The asphalt seeps at the Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits represent the only consistently-active and urban Ice Age excavation site in the world. This makes the Page a unique on-site museum — a place where fossils are discovered, prepared, and displayed in one place. All year long, visitors can watch paleontological excavators carefully extract fossils of animals trapped in the seeps 10,000 to 40,000 years ago. Inside the Museum is the next step of process, as scientists and volunteers clean, repair and identify those fossils — including the bones of “Zed,” the most complete Columbian mammoth ever found in the seeps — in the transparent Fish Bowl Lab. The Museum then displays the final result: extraordinary specimens of saber-toothed cats, mammoths, dire wolves and mastodons, as well as fossilized remains of microscopic plant remains, insects and reptiles.

Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County (Exposition Park)

The Natural History Museum has amassed one of the world’s most extensive and valuable collections of natural and cultural history. It holds, in public trust, more than 35 million objects — from meteorites 4.5 billion years old to new species of insects discovered just weeks ago. These collections allow the curatorial staff to embark on groundbreaking scientific and cultural research now and into the future. But the Museum also shares them with the public today, as they form the foundation of its programs and exhibits. Armed with up-to-date biodiversity research and vast collections, the Museum curates new, immersive experiences that give visitors the opportunity to explore the big picture of our planet — specimens and objects collected through time, their behind-the-scenes stories (how we discover, collect and research them), and the increasing interrelatedness of the natural and cultural worlds.
