Dating in Downtown LA

A first date idea
The Broad
General admission to The Broad is free, and free timed tickets let you skip the line at busy times. It is closed on Mondays and open late until 8pm Thursday to Saturday. Civic Center/Grand Park station is about a 0.4 mile walk, but check hours on the museum's site, as this guide was last updated a while ago.
