Since Sketch Crawl hits the big 3-0! Let's do something fitting and awesome!
Saturday, January 22, 2011 · 11:00am - 5:00pm

So where do you guys want to go this time around?
I'm thinking it will be pretty cold out so maybe we should aim for something inside, anyone have ideas? Maybe Museums?

Ideas:
* Getty Museum
* Getty Villa
* Natural History Museum
* Petersen Automotive Museum
* Grammy Museum at LA Live
* Hollywood Museum - lots of costumes
* Pacific Asia Museum
* Skirball Center
* The Museum of Tolerance (might be a bit of a downer though)
* California Science Center
* La Brea Tar pits
* Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
* Aquarium of the Pacific
* Queen Mary

How about the subway stations along the Red Line? There's some pretty cool architecture and art in the stations. We could go from Union Station to North Hollywood for just $6 with an all day Metro pass. Here's an article with photos of the Red Line stations. The Metro website has photos and description of the art at each station. If the weather isn't too cold, we could also visit the areas around some of stations.
