LACMA Family Tours: Outdoor Sculpture and Modern Art, Nov. 8
The meeting point is part of the plan: visitors gather outdoors on W.M. Keck Plaza before a LACMA docent leads an interactive, 30-minute tour linking outdoor sculptures with Modern Art Galleries highlights. The session is on Sunday, Nov. 8, 2026.
A plaza meeting, then art across the grounds and galleries
The published description brings together two settings—LACMA’s outdoor sculptures and its Modern Art Galleries—rather than naming a single exhibition or artwork. The docent-led format is interactive, but the listing does not give a detailed route or identify particular works.
That makes the tour a short guided introduction to those subjects, not a named-artwork itinerary or an art-making session. Families deciding whether it fits their visit can expect a 30-minute group tour; the event page does not specify an age range.

A membership option for Los Angeles County families
NexGenLA is a free LACMA membership for eligible children and teens who live in Los Angeles County, and the museum says members can bring one guest for free admission. LACMA’s pages do not use consistent age wording: the event and ticket pages say 17 and under, while the dedicated membership page says under 17. Anyone relying on the benefit for a 17-year-old should check eligibility with the museum.
