Los Angeles families and visitors can now combine two world‑class cultural experiences on a single day. The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County announced a special promotion for anyone who presents a ticket to the nearby Lucas Museum of Narrative Art.
How the discount works
Adults who show a valid Lucas Museum ticket at the Natural History Museum ticket window will receive $5 off the regular admission price. Children, students and seniors will receive a $3 reduction per ticket. The offer is valid for any visit to the Natural History Museum that occurs within 30 days of the Lucas Museum admission.
Why the museums are partnering
Both institutions share Exposition Park as their home, a historic public space that has served Los Angeles for more than a century. By encouraging guests to explore both venues, the museums hope to strengthen the park’s role as a cultural hub and provide families with a convenient, affordable way to enjoy art and science together.
What to see at each museum
The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which opened only a few weeks ago, showcases a diverse collection of murals, classic Norman Rockwell works, fantastical paintings and even a fleet of iconic “Star Wars” vehicles. Meanwhile, the Natural History Museum offers its signature dinosaur exhibits, including the famous green‑bony specimen “Gnatalie,” as well as extensive galleries on earth science, biodiversity and the deep past.
Visitors often pair a morning tour of the Lucas Museum’s narrative art displays with an afternoon stroll through the Natural History Museum’s expansive galleries, creating a full day of education and entertainment without leaving Exposition Park.
Details and expiration
The discount program runs through December 31, 2026. Guests should bring their Lucas Museum ticket—whether a printed receipt or a digital QR code—to the Natural History Museum’s admissions desk to claim the reduced price. The promotion applies only to standard admission; special exhibitions or premium experiences may be excluded.
Both museums encourage patrons to check each institution’s website for the latest hours, health guidelines and any additional programming tied to the partnership.
Community impact
By lowering the cost of a second museum visit, the offer supports local families, school groups and tourists who wish to make the most of Los Angeles’ cultural resources. The collaboration reflects a broader trend of institutions working together to enhance community access to the arts and sciences, reinforcing Exposition Park’s status as a neighborhood centerpiece.
