Attention all Instagrammers and influencers! Hollywood just got a little more exciting for you! In just 11 short days, the L.A. Museum of Selfies is opening up in the heart of the entertainment world.
We know what you’re thinking. A museum? For selfies? Don’t worry, it’s not what you think and stop running to find the best light to see if you can get your own submission on display. This museum isn’t just of selfies, it’s about them. The interactive exhibits enable guests to learn and see how selfies began. Through art, history, technology and culture, the museum shows us how we got to this phenomenon of selfies — how it got started, and why it’s sticking. Parents and those against the selfie sensation don’t worry – we aren’t just talking recent history either, but dating back 40,000 years. History lessons are in tow! Maybe it took a little longer to grow this obsession than we all previously thought!
L.A. Museum of Selfies
Don’t worry for the selfie obsessed. It wouldn’t be a museum of selfies without the chance to get many of your own selfies to show off to the world. Selfie sticks not banned, but encouraged!
The Museum opens up on October 12th, and tickets are available for purchase here: https://museumofselfies.com/. (Discounts for kids are available, and ages 0-4 are free! It’s never too early to start on that selfie game).
The Best in L.A. Selfies
The exhibit will be right in the heart of Hollywood at 6757 Hollywood Boulevard. For parking, the museum recommends using the structure at The Hollywood and Highland Center. The whole exhibit should take about 60-90 minutes to explore, leaving you ample time to check out the famous Chinese Theater and Walk of Fame. Easy afternoon to hit all the favorites. Our Glitterati Tours suggestion to end the day super sweet–stop at Ghirardelli for a great chocolate sundae. Then, doctor it up nice for that perfect selfie for someone with a sweet tooth. How appropriate after the museum!
