Arts bargains bloom for culture lovers

“April,” the poet wrote, “is the cruelest month.” Not in Los Angeles County, where April will be especially kind to arts aficionados of all types. Through April 30, many of our region’s best arts venues, including museums, attractions and performing arts troupes, are giving culture vultures a chance to swoop in and grab admission tickets at discounts of up to 50 percent. Who wouldn’t want a 2-for-1 deal on the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra concerts, LACMA, or the Los Angeles Conservancy’s walking tours, just to name a few? Not to mention discounts at the shops of museums with free admissions. Check out Discover the Arts in LA here for some tasty offers, and peruse the Official Cultural Calendar of Los Angeles County to start planning your outings.
