Other exhibitions in this series, which will extend into the year 2000, will focus on Chinese settlement in California and the development of the citrus industry. The Autry Museum is devoted to the distinctive history and mythology of the American West, from its prehistoric roots to its Gold Rush days and the illusory impressions left by film, radio and television. It is the only museum to so broadly span the West's geographic and artistic scope and to present the region's diverse ethnic and cultural elements. Its material related to the mythical West is the best in the world. The Autry Museum is located in Griffith Park at 4700 Western Heritage Way, adjacent to the Los Angeles Zoo, where the 5 and 134 fieeways meet.
Parking is free.
