Arts & Culture

The broad is a great art museum to check out. If you can get to the website before your trip and book a time thats the best bet, or getting there early and waiting in line for a day of ticket is also a good option. But usually a long line.

7th street metro stop has the blue line which you can take into culver city or directly to santa monica. A great option to avoid commuting to the west side during rush hour - which is 8am-11am and 3pm-7pm. Every day.

Shopping

Cute little gifts in the arts district so a quick 5-10 min uber away and a great place to start and walk around. Ask anyone who works there for suggestions around that neighborhood they are super friendly/helpful. Tell them Grant sent you <3

Omgosh this place is amazing I could spend all day browsing books. Make sure you explore upstairs with the book arch, color coordinated books and the vault of old archived books downstairs. This place is my favorite.
