Craft Contemporary

This intimate museum showcases both world-renowned and local up-and-coming artists in the folk and craft art worlds. The museum's goal is to straddle the lines between contemporary art, socio-political movements and craft media you don't always see: fiber arts, metalworking, book-binding and more. Hands-on workshops (several family-friendly) help pass along that knowledge. The gift store is filled with delights.

The gift store is one of the best in town, with hand-crafted gifts, including many by local makers, with an emphasis on jewelry, housewares, textiles and games.

On weekends, $5 validated parking is available at 5750 Courtyard Pl; enter off Wilshire Blvd, between Masselin St and Curson Ave.
