About The Broad

The Broad is a contemporary art museum in downtown Los Angeles that opened in 2015 with a collection of nearly 2,000 works by about 200 artists. General admission is free, with timed reservations recommended. The building by Diller Scofidio + Renfro wraps a concrete storage vault in a porous veil of 2,500 panels that filters daylight into the galleries. Yayoi Kusama's Infinity Mirrored Room needs its own advance reservation.
