Getty Announces Extended Summer Hours

Visitors may enjoy the Getty Center until 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays from June 1 through Sept. 21.

Beginning June 1 through September 21, visitors can stroll the gardens and galleries and dine at the Getty Center until 9 p.m. on Fridays as well as Saturdays.

The extended Friday evening hours will give visitors more time to enjoy Herb Ritts: LA Style, which continues throughout most of the summer, and Gustav Klimt: The Magic of Line, a major international loan exhibition of Klimt’s rarely seen drawings that opens on July 3.

In addition, the Getty Center features expanded family-focused programming throughout the summer, including Garden Concerts for Kids in August and free tours and activities each day. Saturdays off the 405 offers a lively lineup of fresh new music, dancing and provocative gallery tours in June, July, September and October.
