Jeffery, graphic designer and Alvin, student

Why did you come to LACMA today?
Jeffery:
I’m here visiting L.A. for six weeks from Chicago and he’s just showing me some of the places I haven’t been to yet.

What do you think of L.A.?
Jeffery: I like it. As I’ve been exploring parts of it there is the nitty-gritty and then you can wander up in the hills and see amazing architecture. I’m staying up in Silver Lake and I like the diversity of all the hills and then walking around Sunset and seeing the urban street life.

Kathy and John; both work at Screen Actors Guild

Where would you like to travel?
Kathy
: Greece. I like antiquities and there a lot I don’t know and I like history.
John: I think my next trip would probably be Brazil. I think that it’s a place that has everything—it’s got the beach, the mountains, rainforests.

What’s your favorite museum?
Kathy: I love the Met in New York.
John: I should just go for the obvious and say LACMA. I do live in the neighborhood and I love that it’s here and I love being able to come here. I love [the Pay What You Wish program] after 5 pm and the Friday jazz—the whole deal. I think it’s fantastic.
