This Week at LACMA

September 21, 2026

Make yourself at home with two new exhibitions opening this week! Home of the Future, 1925–1985: Designing Domestic Utopias traces six decades of domestic visions through architectural models, drawings, photographs, films, and objects—from self-cleaning kitchens and plastic houses to desktop computers. Presented concurrently with Home of the Future, The Kitchen and Its Discontents brings two influential kitchens together with related artworks to explore the significance of a site historically associated with women’s labor.

Both exhibitions open Sunday, September 27, but members get first access! Join now to be part of Member Previews for both exhibitions Thursday, September 24, through Saturday, September 26.
