Expand Your Mind
Sure, you could take DJ lessons, enroll in art instruction at Barnsdall, or a whole slew of other continual-education classes anywhere in town, but an easy way to nourish your noggin is to sign up for a yearly LACMA pass. You'll score unlimited free admissions to exhibits like "Stanley Kubrick" (a total trip), "Drawing Surrealism," and "Robert Mapplethorpe: XYZ," member preview days for special exhibits, and even discounts at an assortment of spots around Hollyweird (how does a spa day after some Ruscha sound?). Oh, and did you know you also get privileges to rent art from the Sales Gallery?

LACMA Indie Membership (free admission, discounts, members-only screenings, priority ticketing), $50, available at LACMA.
