J. Paul Getty viewed art as a civilizing influ- ence in society, and strongly believed in making art available to the public for its education and enjoyment. The mission of the Getty Museum is to delight, inspire, and educate through the collection, pres- ervation, exhibition and interpretation of works of art of the highest quality. The location and view from the one billion- dollar center is as spectacular as the archi- tecture and 54 galleries containing some of the world’s major pieces of art. Join us on an excursion you will long remember! A no-host lunch chosen from snacks to formal sit-down is available on site. A parking pass will be provided when you arrive in Parking Lot #1.
