The Downtown L.A. Art Walk is a free, self-guided tour of a wide genre of art venues in Downtown Los Angeles. From commercial art galleries to museums, and non-profit arts exhibitions, there's a little bit of something for everyone. The Downtown L.A. Art Walk takes place on the 2nd Thursday of every month.
The Downtown Art Walk has been going strong since its inception in September 2004,  with thousands of people attending every month. Participants in the Downtown L.A. Art Walk include the following list of nearly 50 art venues:
Downtown L.A. Art walk galleries

The Downtown L.A. Art Walk takes place in the central downtown area, within the walkable districts between the Grand Avenue / Disney Hall / MOCA, Little Tokyo, the Financial District, and centered around Gallery Row on Main and Spring Streets in the Historic Core. You'll find that the majority of galleries are open until about 9 p.m., with a few closing either earlier or later. It's best to call the galleries directly for more specific information.

If you want to avoid traffic and parking hassles, your best bet is to take advantage of the Metro system since the Downtown L.A. Art Walk is easily accessible via the Metro Red, Gold, and Blue line trains, and many run until at least midnight. The closest Metro stop is Pershing Square but  paid parking is also plentiful in the area, in case public transit isn't your thing.  Parking meters are available until 4PM, and free after 6 or 7 PM on most streets. Once you're downtown, local LA City DASH buses are an easy way to get around for only 25¢ until 6PM. After the Downtown L.A. Art Walk, you'll find an abundance of bars and lounges that wil be open into the wee hours with entertainment, food, and drink. Be safe, have fun, and enjoy the walk!
