Please note: We are currently closed for the installation of our next exhibit, W|ALLS: Defend, Divide, and the Divine, which opens October 5! The Annenberg Space for Photography is a cultural destination dedicated to exhibiting both digital and print photography in an intimate environment. The venue, an initiative of the Annenberg Foundation and its trustees, is the first solely photographic cultural destination in the Los Angeles area, and it creates a new paradigm in the world of photography

It all started when I saw signs on light standards on Olympic Boulevard that said, "Who Shot Rock and Roll?" After driving by them for about a month, I wondered, "Who DID shoot Rock and Roll, and what does that mean? So I went home and googled it. OMG! It was the Annenberg Space for Photography, hidden among the tall office buildings in Century City. They offer periodic FREE photographic exhibitions that are beautifully curated with state of the art multimedia presentation as well as evening events. There is usually a very interesting and informative short movie with each exhibit. I've been to three now, Who Shot Rock and Roll, The Power of Photography, National Geographic: 125 years, and the newest one, Country: Portraits of an American Sound.. Each time, I have taken family and friends with me, and no one has ever been disappointed. My suggestion: Go early, allow a couple of leisurely hours there, and then shop and have lunch in Century City. Tom Colicchio's Craft is practically next door...

This is one place to put on your list of things to do while in LA. Free admission gets you access to an attractive gallery that includes world-class photos and a small theater. When we visited in December 2018 we saw Joel Sartore's Photo Ark. The exhibit included a fascinating short documentary of Sartore's work as well as, of course, photos of animals from around the world.
There was a photo booth that allowed patrons to take photos with their favorite animal superimposed. Fun for adults and children, and because of it's size, you can get through it with small children before they lose their patience. Highly recommend!

The exhibits are always changing, but each of them ( and I visit there frequently) are excellent. If you are interested in photography it is a Must! You need to park your car at the address location ( which is a large office building), go through the building to the museum which is located in the courtyard. Don’t forget to ask for the parking validation at the museum.

Many of our friends urged us to go to the Annenberg photography museum. We checked the website to confirm opening times and days of the week. We arrived at the parking garage and were told that it had been closed for several weeks to install a new show.
They need to publicize the fact they are CLOSED and when they will reopen. This isn’t the easiest place to get and is pricy.

This little gem of a gallery is tucked in between high rise office buildings in Century City. It will be a hike from any garage you can find. Be prepared to pay up to $35.00 to park. Maximize your stay by eating at a nearby restaurant that might offer validation -most of the reasonably priced spots are only open for lunch. Or park at Westfields Shopping Mall in Century City, shop and eat there, then walk over to spend 20 minutes or so in the photo gallery.

I really adored this photography museum. I saw the Lauren Greenfield exhibition, her photography showed the many faces of capitalism and the ultra rich in Los Angeles. The exhibition was informative, fascinating and touching. I found the exhibition quite large with a lot of information. If you have the chance to see the exhibition in two separate days, I believe you will be able to take in and appreciate much more. The entrance is free, so that should not stop you.

took a trip out here to see a specific exhibit they had a while back. the exhibit was nice but the space is very very small so there is not that much to look at! also its like in the middle of an office park so getting to it is a pain and there is nothing near by so its not really convenient to get to

I've been to the Annenberg at least 15 or 20 times. They have great exhibits, wonderful lectures, and just great events. It's sure to appeal to both photographers and those who love photography. Sign up for their newsletter and try to attend one of their special events, but be aware, tickets go fast.

I've been to two exhibits here in the last year and have loved them both!! The exhibits are incredible well prepared and presented and when you consider that admission is free and that they validate parking to $4.50 it's a no-brainer to go.
