This quarter we have two spectacular field trips planned. Our first field trip is to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) and the second field trip is to the Getty Center. There are simply too many important exhibitions between these two museums that are relevant to Art 130, therefore we will have two field trips. These field trips are all day events, and they are in lieu of the lectures that week.
A FEW TIPS TO PREPARE FOR OUR FIELD TRIPS:
1) Be sure that you have our emails with you! If you arrive late, you want to be able to find us at the museum. However, try to leave early so that you arrive on time, because reception isn't good in all parts of the museums, and you may be waiting a long time before we see your email.
2) I would suggest eating a big breakfast since we won't be taking a break for lunch until later in the day. Furthermore, pack snacks for the road, and for lunch, unless you want to treat yourself to food at the museum.
3) If you are driving from Santa Barbara, be sure to give yourself at least two hours to drive to LA. You never know what kind of traffic that you will encounter.
4) Wear comfortable shoes and clothing! We will be doing a lot of walking and hiking up stairs, so you want to be very comfortable.
5) Charge your phone since you will want to take a lot of pictures at the museum.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION: LACMA’s first priority is the health and safety of our visitors, staff, and volunteers. Masks continue to be required indoors for everyone, regardless of vaccination status, until further notice. Maintaining some health and safety protocols remains critical to provide a safe environment for staff, volunteers, and visitors of all ages, including those with compromised health and families with children who cannot be vaccinated. These protocols are in place to help protect against the spread of COVID-19.

Nota Bene: The museum trip is all-day immersive experience, and therefore the museum field trip is in lieu of both of the Art 1A lectures that week (section attendance is as scheduled). If you do not go to the museum that week, or the alternative assignment, then you will receive two absences. Take a selfie at the museum, and works of art that were of interest to you, and include it in your paper as proof of attendance.
